Restore Wetlands Declare Victory!

Återställ Våtmarker (Restore Wetlands) Declare Victory!
Everyone wants to restore wetlands now! Our job with the wetlands is done. We will no longer glue ourselves to the highway with our Restore Wetlands banners. Peaceful civil resistance works. With victory behind us, we will step up our fight against the peat industry and the harmful peat mines.
We have done our job! In just two years since the campaign started, we have managed to:
- Create a media revolution and brought attention to the wetlands to an estimated value of 848 million SEK! Our marketing value is almost one billion SEK! (Calculated using Meltwater)!
- The attention has educated the Swedish people about the climate impact of drained wetlands and subsequently created a massive public opinion for wetland restoration. 75% of the Swedish people now think it is important to restore wetlands.
- At the same time, there has been a big debate in Sweden, both in the media and among people, about the climate benefit of wetlands - 4,500 articles have been written about Restoring Wetlands both nationally and internationally.
- The massive public opinion has made all parties in parliament stand behind restoring wetlands, and this year the government has made wetland restoration one of their three prioritized points in their climate policy.
There is hope! Peaceful civil resistance is an effective way to change a destructive system.
Join us in shutting down and banning the harmful peat industry.
