Deforested mangroves show strong recovery potential: study
Human and natural disturbances have driven global declines of mangrove forests, which serve as critical protection for coastlines and fisheries.
A new study analysed thousands of shoreline litter surveys and other data from more than 100 countries to produce the first global index of macroplastic pollution by type.
On the east coast of Indonesia’s Lombok Island, local people who rely on the local crab fishery have initiated their own mangrove planting program in a bid to resuscitate failing crab habitats.
A new documentary, “Jejak Wallacea,” highlights how coastal communities across eastern Indonesia are reviving customary marine management systems to protect ecosystems threatened by destructive fishing, turtle hunting and habitat loss.
