Mangrove trees are one of our strongest allies in slowing global warming. That’s because they store three to five times more organic carbon than tropical upland forests. In fact, each tree in Planet Mama’s mangrove replanting project can sequester over 250 kilograms of carbon over 20 years.
Mangrove forests also connect and balance land and marine ecosystems. This helps plants, animals, and nutrients move more easily between land and sea, leading to stronger ecosystems.
PLANET MA is a non-profit organization working to limit climate change. To achieve this, they’re replanting mangroves and restoring coastal plants in India.
PLANET MAMA works with the local community at Sunderban to replant the rich mangrove forests, helping undo the damage caused by deforestation.
We also develop, manage, and support local businesses that use sustainable coastal resources.
Climate change and global warming are a threat to us all. But by replanting mangroves in India, we can help save the planet while supporting local communities in the area.
Replanting mangroves creates safe habitats where native wading birds, forest animals, and amphibians can thrive.
