Today is #WorldMangroveDay ! On the island of Tutuila, American Samoa, mangroves play a crucial role in protecting coastal communities and supporting social, cultural, and economic activities. In conserving these ecosystems, we also conserve ourselves.
#WorldMangroveDay is a chance to raise awareness about the biodiversity, carbon, cultural, recreational, & financial benefits of conserving and restoring these rare but vital systems. Thankyou to the communities and organisations worldwide that are rising to the challenge.
