A new study reveals restoring mangroves could save $800 million in storm damage, protect 140,000 people from flooding, and remove almost triple the amount of CO2 produced by cars in the U.S. every year.

The tidal environment of mangrove forests serves as nurseries for many fish species. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have measured carbon dioxide and oxygen levels in 23 of world’s mangrove areas. The study sends out a warning that these ecosystems are increasingly threatened as sea temperatures continue to rise.

Smarter mangrove protection: Study links a 7.3% area boost to 13.3% resilience gain https://phys.org/news/2026-03-smarter-mangrove-links-area-boost.html
A global study of mangroves has found that a modest boost in conserved areas could significantly increase their ability to adapt to the changing climate, including rising sea levels. University of Queensland Ph.D. candidate Alvise Dabalà led the analysis, which showed that safeguarding the coastal mangrove ecosystem didn't require huge expansions in protected areas, just smarter planning. The study is published in the journal Nature Communications.
Capitalism and democracy do not necessarily go hand in hand. ... Perhaps the greatest threat to freedom and democracy in the world today comes from the formation of unholy alliances between government and business.

#Anecdotique ? Les mangroves ne représentent que 2% de la surface océanique mais stockent plus de 50% du carbone sédimentaire marin.
We're all looking for answers that are proportional to the event. [Conspiracy theorists] help connect the dots for people with what feels like a coherent answer to a problem that makes them feel powerless.
