Protecting livelihoods by protecting mangroves - BBC Storyworks & Sustainable Surf

For communities that live by the ocean, livelihoods can depend on the ecosystems that live beneath the surface. ⁠
⁠
Kenya’s coastline is dotted with thick hedges of mangroves, which are crucial for reducing poverty, building economic resilience, and offering carbon sequestration and biodiversity benefits.⁠
⁠
Our film with BBC StoryWorks showcases how mangrove restoration projects in Mida Creek, led by Sustainable Surf’s SeaTrees and COBEC, support wildlife and local communities. Since 2021, they’ve restored 2.2 million trees!!!! We will share the full film soon.⁠
⁠
This film is part of the Blue Horizons series presented by the @worldoceancouncil5887 and produced by @bbcstoryworks. ⁠

Bless you for the work you do for Mother Earth! ( We also live close to the se on an island in the Baltiic Sea so many tourists is killing our island and the sea is one of the most polluted in the world...)

CUIDAR Y PROTEGER LA NATURALEZA ES CUIDAR Y PROTEGER AL SER HUMANO.

Conservation efforts are only sustainable when people can thrive from environmental protection. Especially where people still live off the land. Humans are an important component of nature.
