Coral Reefs and Mangroves of the World
Coral reefs are among nature's most spectacular creations. They are one of the most complex, diverse and economically valuable ecosystems in the world but are being rapidly damaged. 10% of the world's reefs are seriously degraded and many more are threatened. Mangroves, which play a vital role in coastal protection and fisheries production, are also at risk globally. Governments, local communities and all those who value and benefit from reefs and mangroves are now uniting to protect and sustainably manage these jewels of the planet. |
