Episode 37: Wetland Restoration with Tom Biebighauser

Wild For Change

Wetlands are crucial ecosystems for the filtration of excessive water in some parts of the world and for storing carbon, preventing the overheating of the atmosphere. This is why they are often called the ‘kidneys' of the landscape. Moreover, they are home to numerous flora and fauna species and thus are vital as a variety of habitats. However, human interventions sometimes have catastrophic impacts on wetlands.according to some estimations, over the last 50 years, our planet has lost around 35% of wetland area, and the rate of degradation is increasing. Moreover, wetlands are actually dying three times quicker than trees.Why does losing wetlands pose numerous risks linked to the future of the environment and humans? Some of the major problems associated with the loss of wetlands include:Loss of biodiversityA large number of various species of plants and animals can be found exclusively in wetlands and would risk extinction if these are destroyed.Water purificationWetlands serve as natural water filters that remove contaminants and extra nutrients from water before it reaches rivers, lakes and seas. Iin the absence of wetlands, water quality may deteriorate.Flood controlDuring periods of heavy precipitation and snowmelt, wetlands behave as natural sponges, soaking up and decelerating the flow of water. This means that a lack of wetlands would cause floods to be much more intense and destructive.Wetland Restoration and Training LLC was established in 2014 by Tom Biebighauser with the mission of encouraging and helping people build naturally appearing and functioning wetlands.He has designed over 6,000 wetland projects and has successfully supervised the construction of over 2,800 wetlands in 26-states, 3-Canadian provinces, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, and Taiwan. He carries a deep and long-standing concern for the environment and finds it rewarding to assist individuals who are interested in restoring wetlands and streams. Tom has 43 years of experience helping to build 2,850 wetlands. Tom has interviewed and worked alongside numerous seniors who spent their lives draining wetlands and moving streams, documenting their practices so others can be successful in restoring these ecosystems. This knowledge has allowed him to identify over 50-signs on the landscape showing where wetlands once occurred. He specializes in restoring wetlands, streams, and rivers that provide habitat for endangered and threatened species. Tom has developed techniques for building wetlands that improve habitat for rare species including the Blandings turtle, burbot, California red-legged frog, Chiricahua leopard frog, grizzly bear, Eastern spadefoot, Great Basin spadefoot, Indiana bat, marbled salamander, mole salamander, Northern bat, Northern leopard frog, Sandhill Crane, Trumpeter Swan, Virginia big-eared bat, Western painted turtle, white sturgeon, and the wood frog.Website: http://www.wildforchange.com Twitter: @WildForChange Facebook: /wildforchange Instagram: wildforchange

In Mr. Blandings Builds his Dream House we focus on the horrors of being hoodwinked into purchasing a money pit. In Imitation of Life we follow the tragic tale of a young Black woman who passes as white woman and the shame she feels associating with her mother. What we don't generally focus on is the fact that these stories ultimately deal with how the Anglo characters profit as a result of the labor or ideas of their household workers whose stations in life never change as a result of the accumulation of wealth. Join us to discuss these issues and how at the time no one appeared to be outraged.
