Wetlands around the world have been damaged by dredging (digging). Most dredging is done to develop urban areas or expand ports. Dredging and drying a wetland can create more land for homes, businesses, or agriculture. Dredging a wetland near a harbor can allow more ships to dock, increasing the economic activity of the area. Dredging a harbor can also deepen the port, which allows larger ships, with more cargo, to dock.
