Description
Mangrove forests are critical to addressing climate change due to the ecosystem services they provide. Mangroves create habitat for fisheries and diverse flora and fauna, act as a natural barrier to storms, and prevent runoff or soil erosion, in addition to their significant carbon sequestration potential. In this inaugural episode of Carbon Connection, we talk to Director of Latin America, Amy Kessler about the Manglares San Crisanto/San Crisanto Mangroves project, the Climate Action Reserve’s first ever mangrove offset project registered through the Mexico Forest Protocol, and the significance it will have on the local ejido community. To learn more about mangrove forests and their importance to ecosystems, please check out the Climate Action Reserve’s infographic.
