Swamps, marshes, peat bogs, river deltas, mangroves, tundra, lagoons and river flood plains (wetlands)
contain 771 billion tonnes of CO2, that is one-fifth of all the carbon on Earth
and about the same amount of carbon as is now in the atmosphere.
Together they account for 6 percent of Earth's land surface and store 20 percent of its carbon.
