Why Mangroves?
Hurricane Resilience
Mangroves act as a natural buffer defending coastal communities from flooding by dissipating wave energy and storm surge.
Carbon Sequestration
Mangroves are up to five times more effective at sequestering atmospheric carbon than tropical rainforests.
Fish Nurseries
Mexico’s Pacific mangroves provide refuge for gray whales and migratory birds, feeding grounds for endangered sea turtles, and offer important nursery habitat for commercially valuable fisheries.
WE CAN HELP YOU BALANCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT BY PLANTING MANGROVES IN MEXICO.
Mangrove forests cover just 0.1 percent of the planet’s surface but store up to 50 times more carbon per acre than land forests, even the rainforest. This carbon-storing superpower makes mangroves a critical part of the solution to climate change.
