About WetKit
WetKit is...

A site that all Canadians can help build. WetKit provides an opportunity for conservation agencies to distribute their tools, for businesses to promote their products and projects, and for users to contribute to WetKit's design and development.

A Web-based tool kit designed to streamline access to practical tools that can help Canadians better understand and manage wetlands. WetKit showcases a wealth of wetland tools and explains how each one can help conserve wetlands and benefit you or your business. WetKit also helps users to find the tool they need, and to access that tool quickly and easily - on the Internet or over the phone!

Good, practical advice for wetland problems. WetKit provides answers to the most common questions about wetlands, such as Why are wetlands important? How can my activities affect wetlands? How can wetland conservation benefit my business? Where can I get help? WetKit's search engines also help users access tools by environmental issue, geographic region, sector or activity, or tool format.

A resource for Canadians who influence what happens on the ground including farmers, foresters, woodlot owners, municipal planners, environmental assessment practitioners, community leaders, property owners, developers, and many others.

A way to help Canadians do the right thing. WetKit moves tools off the shelves and into the hands of people who can make a difference. WetKit promotes for example, a CD-ROM that takes students on a virtual field trip through a bog; instructions for building a pond in your backyard; a method for identifying wetland sites for restoration; a handbook for foresters on how to mitigate wetland impacts; and a guide for citizens on how to legally protect a wetland.
