The costs of active restoration may be offset by aggressive carbon pricing demanded by the Paris Agreement.

Coastal Wetlands Save $1.8 Million per Year for Each Square Kilometer
The protective value of a plot of wetlands varies widely based on the county it shields from storm-related property damage.
After a Century, Restored Wetlands May Still Be a Carbon Source
Methane emissions can drastically lower, or even reverse, the benefits of carbon sequestration in restored wetlands, according to new measurements from the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta.
Salty Secret Might Aid Carbon Impact of Restored Wetlands
Research on a surprising way rainfall affected the salinity of a boreal peatland might help restorers of such wetlands wrecked by tar sands mining maximize carbon absorption of reclaimed marshes.
