"Report: Over Half of Mangrove Ecosystems at Risk of Collapse by 2050"

A new global assessment by the International Union for Conservation of Nature reveals that half of the world's mangrove ecosystems are at risk of collapse due to climate change-induced sea level rise and more severe storms. Mangroves, which protect coastal communities and provide habitats for various species, are struggling to survive in increasingly harsh conditions. The report emphasizes the need for mangrove restoration projects and reducing greenhouse gas emissions to ensure the longevity of these vital ecosystems.
