The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands

The cultural heritage of wetlands -- a World Wetlands Day pocket calendar

The Ramsar Bureau offers a cute little calendar, suitable for carrying in your pocket or purse or discarding accidentally because it's so conveniently small

Five calendars pictured in various states of undress

These calendars carry a one-year guarantee on the accuracy of the dates and show World Wetlands Day, 2 February 2002, semi-prominently. They slide easily into your pocket for ready access, and whenever your dentist seeks advice about your availability for still more necessary bridgework, you need only draw it out with a graceful gesture and steer him or her away from 2 February, any other day will be suitable but not that one. The wetlands will be calling out to us.

This excellent product for World Wetlands Day has been financially supported by the Evian Project funded by the Danone Group.
