Wetland Preservation


EKW is one of those places on earth where there is no distinction made between human and sauna. They live seamlessly with each other.


Living creatively with nature


Wetland Preservation
The major problems confronting the wetlands are

  • Encroachment
  • Siltation
  • weed infestation
  • pollution 
  • indiscriminate aquaculture. 

The combined threat of these factors has given rise to the following problems:

• Decrease in biological diversity particularly endemic and endangered species;

• Deterioration of water quality;

• Sedimentation and shrinkage in the area;

• Decrease in migratory bird population, fish and other faunal productivity;

• Prolific growth of obnoxious aquatic weeds damaging vegetation cover.
