Mangroves are the only trees in the world that can grow in salt water, and they are rockstars in the fight against #climatechange. And, fun fact: mangroves survive by filtering about 90% of the salt found in seawater as it enters their roots, some excreting it out through glands in their leaves. 🤯
In this video, part of our series of explainers honoring the kickoff of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, we talk about the importance of mangroves, and how our partner @bahamasnationaltrust is working to protect them.
Let's #rewild the world! 🟢
