| local.seafdecaqd.extract | Did you know mangroves absorb and store around four times more carbon than most tropical forests? A study in Nature Geoscience journal examined the carbon content of 25 mangrove forests across the Indo-Pacific region. It found that, per hectare, mangrove forests can store up to four times more carbon than other types of forests. Commonly known for sheltering animals and protecting communities from flooding, coastal trees are a powerhouse at capturing and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide. Conserving them shouldn’t be up for debate, especially today when climate change looms large. | en |
