Many scientists, global representatives, and county officials are working to protect these regions from disasters. Mitigation and adaptation are the primary strategies for addressing climate change issues. However, implementing the adaptation strategy to handle coastal disasters, including sea-level rise, cyclones, and tsunamis, takes time and effort. Therefore, mitigation is becoming the most crucial approach for addressing climate change disasters in coastal areas. Mangroves are the most efficient and cost-effective option on a regional and global scale. Unfortunately, the world has lost nearly half its mangrove forests over the past century. Therefore, mangrove restoration and conservation are now critical.

Restoring mangroves can significantly reduce CO2 levels in the air. Due to their superior ability to store carbon beneath the soil, they have a carbon storage capacity of 3-5 times that of terrestrial forests. Therefore, mangroves are vital in mitigating global climate change issues.

In the case of mangrove restoration, the mangrove plantation method is commonly used worldwide, while the ecological mangrove restoration method is effectively employed later, based on the paradigm that natural regeneration of mangroves is superior for restoring these ecosystems.

Restoration through the plantation method often proves unsuccessful, and many researchers have highlighted the high failure rates of mangrove plantations. This failure is typically attributed to an insufficient understanding of the ecological niches of each species, challenges in site and species selection, and other coastal environmental factors.
