Buffer

– In nature, a buffer is something that helps protect the environment from sudden changes or damage. You can think of it like a sponge—it soaks things up and keeps everything in balance.

Natural buffers, like wetlands, forests, or grasslands, do a lot of important jobs. They hold extra water during heavy rains to prevent flooding. They also help clean the air and water by filtering out harmful chemicals. When the environment goes through stress—like a drought, pollution, or a big storm—buffers help keep plants, animals, and ecosystems steady and healthy.

Without buffers, nature would have a harder time dealing with extreme conditions.
