Reforestation and Restoration of Degraded Mangrove Lands
Reforestation and Restoration of Degraded Mangrove Lands
The primary goal of the project is to restore and protect thousands of hectares of degraded mangrove forests. The mangrove restoration and livelihood improvement activities of the project are implemented in the village tracts of Myanmar. In this project, millions of new mangroves are planted as additionality on the degraded mangrove lands. Their goal is to plant 1,000,000,000 trees to achieve the level needed to make a global impact on climate change. Restoration is a timely investment generating values higher than restoration costs. Just a single one of these benefits, like a 50 percent increase in sea food stocks, will far outweigh the investment required.
