Take a moment and travel through a mangrove forest 🌊 🌳
These special forests:
🌎 Capture carbon
🌴 Serve as a natural defense for coasts against flooding & erosion
🐟 Provide a home for many species
💧 Are a source of food, water quality improvement, and livelihood for local communities
But more than 35% of the world’s mangroves are gone and in the Philippines, that number is even higher: over 50% of mangroves have been destroyed.
That’s why Oceana_ph campaigns to create national law that will protect & restore mangrove forests in the Philippines. Learn more and join our campaign to restore these coastal guardians through the
