As the world confronts the challenges of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, one of our most effective natural solutions lies on Africa's coastlines. Mangroves are among the most valuable ecosystems on Earth.
Mangrove forests store carbon at rates up to four times higher than many terrestrial woodlands, making them a powerful ally in addressing climate change. They buffer coastlines, helping to prevent erosion and flooding. Mangroves also maintain water quality by acting as natural filters.
