Wetland Project invites listeners around the planet to tune in to the 10th annual “slow radio” broadcast on 
International Earth Day (Wednesday, April 22, 2026) Since its inauguration on Vancouver Co-op Radio in 2017, listening to the 24 hour soundscape from the ṮEḴTEḴSEN marsh in W̱SÁNEĆ territory (Saturna Island, British Columbia, Canada) has grown into an Earth Day tradition heard on 57 radio stations and via the web in over 50 countries.

Artists Brady Marks and Mark Timmings invite you to fill your home, work, vehicle and leisure spaces with the resonant sounds of birds, frogs, insects, and airplanes! Immerse yourself in the vitality of the 24-hour circadian rhythm of the wetland. The broadcast engages its audience in real time and stimulates a powerful reengagement with the living environment. As the world spins through turbulent times, “slow radio” offers a life-affirming respite to reflect upon a more lucid and caring future.

This year, to celebrate the 10th anniversary, some participating radio stations will be including locally-produced field recordings in conjunction with the Wetland Project broadcast on and around Earth Day.
