Mangrove: Solution for Carbon and Climate

BASIC COURSE

Introduction

This course is created for the benefit of vulnerable coastal communities. Mangroves play an important role in stabilizing shorelines against sea-level rise. It also protects lives and property from cyclones and other extreme weather events. In addition, it mitigates up to 5 times more CO2 climate gases than terrestrial trees. It is an ideal solution for communities to take protective actions.
