- There aren't too many happy stories when it comes to restoring damaged ecosystems, but people in southern Thailand's Trang Province tell one of them, thanks to an innovative grassroots organization called Yad Fon. Founded in 1984, Yad Fon set out to rehabilitate the mangrove ecosystems that had sustained families in the area for thousands of years. How? By helping villagers manage their own natural resources.
The video was done by the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) and published in their Science Bulletins (www.amnh.org/explore/science-b.... It contains an interview with "Alfredo Quarto", MAP's Executive Director and Founder, regarding the negative impacts of shrimp aquaculture in mangrove coastal ecosystem.
Love this, we all must do our part in protecting these ecosystems.
Good job
Mangroves are a treasure chest and a bounty for the fisheries industry, eco-tourism, storm protection as well as valuable fish and wildlife habitat.
Amazing
I am writing a paper for my Caribbean Living Oceans Class. This video was really great inspiration for the setting of my paper.
How did it go? Lol
@@jahnyxo Ahahahaha if you can remember 7 years ago.
Incredible work. KEEP STRONG!
The local people took on a burden of rehabilitation; versus the various industry farms being held accountable for the aftermath. (maybe they were fined etc but that's too late and not acceptable); either way these villagers are heroes.
Beautiful. Thank you for the work you do. Im from Miami. Im in love with the mangroves
Greetings from Dubai, does Miami have any mangroves Rodrigo?
@@KOBSROCKS18 many! There used to be more before the construction, but they are super important to our ecosystem and habitat protection! Although they are very undervalued
