Trees are crucial to a healthy world as they support the planet with many vital functions. Most trees cannot survive in saltwater, but mangroves have adapted to live in high salinity environments. Mangroves can live in such harsh conditions due to their unique root systems. Their roots help the trees stay upright in waterlogged soils, giving them access to oxygen and nutrients.
Mangroves also have special leaves that help them thrive in brackish water. Some mangroves filter that salt water through pores on their leaves. They even store carbon in their leaves, and when those leaves fall off and sink into the mud and silt, they become what is known as blue carbon or carbon that is stored underwater.
Unfortunately, mangroves are disappearing from coasts at a distressing rate due to farming, development, aquaculture, and sea level rise.The benefits of mangroves are immense, and as our planet rapidly changes, planting mangroves is becoming more important than ever.
At One Tree Planted we are actively supporting mangrove restoration projects throughout Asia and Latin America, including Costa Rica, The Philippines, India, Haiti and Guatemala. These fascinating trees are incredibly important both to the ecosystems they support and to the entire planet.

Good god.
We need to expand mangrove forests around the planet.
This is just as important as planting trees.

Mangrove is the best ❤❤

[@michaelbeck7799]

As sea levels rise and marsh grasses are less able to provide estuaries, Mangroves are the logical eventual successor / partner. Both are important for our coastal areas.
