How Can We Help?

In order to improve (or maintain positive) human impacts on this particular ecosystem we can support the causes of such organizations as Ramsar. Ramsar’s mission is "the conservation and wise use of all wetlands through local and national actions and international cooperation, as a contribution towards achieving sustainable development throughout the world". As they profess in their main philosophy, the “wise use” of the benefits provided by such ecosystems as that of Lake Pátzcuaro is our best hope of protecting such areas.
