Zimbabwe wetlands construction triggers conservation worries

Environmental groups in Zimbabwe are urging the government to crack down on building in wetlands.

And in many urban areas, landowners are being blamed for invading and building on wetlands.

Environmentalists say this has led to a drastic decline in groundwater levels.
