This is fascinating information, I learn a lot from this channel
i figured your secret. you always comment on recommendations, right?
I'm a forest official working on the field of mangrove forest in Odisha. I'm delighted to know that I'm not only working to feed my family but surely it has a significant contribution to feed the World at large.
Meanwhile here on Western coastline in India, scientists have found bacteria present in mangroves forest that can help in decaying plastics. They have been lab testing if they use them to manage plastic wastes. Please search on the web to get full information on the matter.
Goes to show that nature has so much to offer.. If only our species collectively understood it! One day I pray ✌️ 🙏
A great community project worth replicating in other mangrove areas
2:21 That's the cutest thing I've seen this week
Mangrove swamps can also protect coastal communities from storms.
PLEASE! MORE OF SUCH CONTENT.. CMON! (Thank you to The Economist for this .. PLEASE BRING BACK SUCH PRODUCTIONS!)
Actual honest reporting that's not yet been tainted by the ever shriller social media-fanned fires of fury: give me more! Thanks for your contributions.
Save Our Planet
My Answer: Regenerative Agriculture Revolution ❤🌱🌻🌼
Thank you for this information. Hopefully there is hope for the world.
we need more people like these
Let's all be honest. The highlight of the video is the crab at @2:21 🦀 🦀 🦀
Love it 🙏😎
a tree is doing more for the environment than some world leaders
Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide. We must reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The key is to find methods to help to transmit carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the soil(including whatever lives on the ground) and ocean in other forms of carbon.
We have some in trinidad, its home to our national birds so no one can really cut our mangroves trees with out consequence.
@The Economist please produce a documentary on Conservational Agriculture or Regenerative Agriculture. For me it is the key to reversing climate change and people need to know more about it. 🌱🌱🌱
So adorable the little crab is! 😘
Releases a video on my 10,000 word essay subject a week after I hand it in 😤
Great video! - Thank You! - Interesting - 💗 🌱🙏🏻
I loved the moment with the crab 🦀 eating his food)) - So cute😍)) - 🦀💕🌊🌱🌈✌🏻
😍 Love it
Mangroves are needed to shield from the effects of severe Typhoons and Storms
Thank you for making such informative videos.
Every little bit helps thank you
Mangrove trees prevent flooding.
This report is basically on the vulnerability of mangrove forest..But It is ridiculous that this report overlooked the present dying conditions of the largest mangrove forest of the world situated mainly on the coastal region of Bangladesh..I couldn’t expect it...
How was it overlooking Bangladesh? A feature on mangroves in Kenya East Africa? Get them to do do one in Bangladesh.What entitled is that you got?
@@kenwrickwairagu I Didn't want to mean that..I just wanted to say that this 10 minute 53 second video could easily cover the largest mangrove forest in the world. where roughly 20 million people are becoming internally displaced with the dying condition of this forest!!! But they didn’t do that..
@@taijulislam7209 : Bangladesh Mangrove forest is larger in area than Brazil's Mangroves? Don't think so.
The Sundarbans mangrove forest is estimated at 10,000km2
Brazil's mangroves are estimated at 25,000km2
Some research shows that Australia, Nigeria and Brazil have larger areas of Mangroves. Bangladesh is 4th.
@@stephenhowe4107 According to UNESCO The Sundarbans Reserve Forest (SRF), located in the south-west of Bangladesh between the river Baleswar in the East and the Harinbanga in the West, adjoining to the Bay of Bengal, is the largest contiguous mangrove forest in the world. Lying between latitude 21° 27′ 30″ and 22° 30′ 00″ North and longitude 89° 02′ 00″ and 90° 00′ 00″ East and with a total area of 10,000 km2, 60% of the property lies in Bangladesh and the rest in India. The land area, including exposed sandbars, occupies 414,259 ha (70%) with water bodies covering 187,413 ha (30%).
I've been reading dozens of papers on carbon offsets - informative but confusing what information is relevant. This summarized the obvious facts so so well.
Mangroves do not need humans, but humans need mangroves
Amazing Mangrove video
Woww...thank you for the video ❤❤
I have learnt alot from here🌒🌒
very informative video!
So if the CO2 is stored in the mangrove soils, then isn’t it acidifying then ocean?
Awesome video :). Although, I have a question. Can fishes benefit mangrove trees? If so, is/are their specific type/s of fishes that do so?
Food source and breading ground for some tropical salt water fish.
@@mymal2002 They meant it in the opposite ways. "Do fish help mangroves?"
Yes, as animals feed off mangroves, they then recycle minerals into the mangrove forests
this is a very important video
Welldone guys
We must protect the forests, specifically mangroves more
4:28 palm oil can't grow on sea salty wet lands
Thank you for such incredible videos!
The "entangled roots of mangroves" store the carbon from parts of trees when fell off into the soultand decompose. Thus acts as a carbon vault that remains intact as for millennia as long as mangroves remain safe. This is the most important reason why we should protect mangrove if not planting new trees. Thanks for such piece of information.
Lets fight for the power
May I get the methods that are used here to estimate biomass in this ecosystem
More than helpful
Gogo Shema I enjoyed this interview. Canada Yeeee
The carbon credit market does nothing for genuine and actual reduction in emissions.
From Kenya🇰🇪
Mangroves, sponge-like systems that act as barriers, among other things, to storms on coast lines.
How does the carnon credit market work?
I understood everything that the man said and I'm sure that the translation is 75% wrong and that's the truth
Watching people destroy them is heartbreaking
hi
this is an inspiratioñal video...
wish our country does the same
how can i help?
You need to mind the ecosystem impact before thinking you just need to plant this trees everywhere.
But planting a tree that can provide food for your environment is a step forward.
You might wanna research mini-ecosystem of vegetables and see how they work.
you need to start convincing shrimp farmers to plant mangroves in the Philippines
Protecting native habitats is nice. But tackling climate change tho?
We’re taking tons of Carbon EVERY DAY from under the earth and converting it into gas; which spreads through the whole atmosphere.
I doubt one could trap all that gas in a biome that can only exist in salty coasts.
I wonder if mangroves are the key in increasing the biotic poump
How? I would like to know your idea!
is there any way to produce fruit from mangroves? very powerful that it can grow from salt water.
@Zach Fox 狐智 Mangrove trees produce fruits, that’s how they reproduce tho I’m not sure if Their edible to humans
I get what your saying in other word like a rootstock that can be grafted on fruit trees
super vidéo
i have a question for any expert here, can we do afforestation for salt water mangroves in inland saltwater basins using brackish water such as lake eyre in south australia or the dead sea in israel?
I don't think these mangrove trees able to flourish in dead sea. Because of the high salinity.
Great info. I wish Mexico would stop killing off their mangroves. We are losing them to developers. :(
An interesting video ....
The female ecologist in the mangrove forest was cool. Are there other videos with her?
Talking about mangrove and not mentioning a word about Sundarbans...
Worldview International Foundation in Myanmar has the biggest mangrove project in the world!!!🙌☺️🙏
Interesting project
How much CO2 do you save putting Radovid in the ground?
Can mangrove be marcot?
Every plant puts carbon back into the soil. Watch Dr Christine Jones' speech about "building topsoil through the liquid carbon pathway" and get kbowledge about soil health. Elaine Ingham and David R. Montgomery are also found on YT and are great sources of knowledge on the topic. REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE REVOLUTION ❤🌱
Water the steps?
Sundarban is the largest mangrove forest
plam oil plantation, so does we plant plam oil in coast side? Big No
We can have drones plant thousands of mangroves per hour...it shouldn't be just up to a couple of villagers here and there
Having to find ways to bribe capitalists not to destroy our planet
@Ricardo Anaya it’s kind of everyone not just capitalists, best case scenario We go extinct
convert the biomass to carbon then to carbon dioxide equivalent which are traded in the voluntary carbon credit market..it sounds simple but it is far from perfect
Mahal ko Ang bakawan dito ako nabubuhay
Alam hutan di ciptakan oleh yang kuasa bukan untuk kita rusak ,karena tentu ada manfaat dan fungsinya untuk keseimbangan alam,jangan salah tapsirkan fungsinya.
This is Mangrove forest
Nothing will happen if we don’t launch those small projects even if they are just like drops in the oceans.

Has anyone tried grafting fruit to mangrove trees?

the carbon emission trading scheme can work, just as long as the carbon credit buyers reduces their operations by 20% offset (that's the agreement). but who regulates that initiative is anybodies guess. government New Zealand aren't transparent with local iwi (tribes) in that perspective, using our lands for commercial non-native forestry trees. defeats the purpose.
Waht this comes down to is 1st world nations paying 3rd world regions to remain poor and backwards.
Just make floating islands and lead them out to sea 😆
Do you thinks islands float?

Trees removing carbon from atmosphere emitting it back in decomposting. Trees are not the permanent solution, we need factories that will remove carbon and make something useful from it.
🌳🌳♥️♥️🌳🌳♥️♥️
Sequestration for the nation! :)

這麼主動這麼熱是在幹嘛
跟那些騙錢老鼠會一樣
hmmm

THE SKY IS FALLING 🤣
Ok
Baffles my mind how people say that climate change is a threat to the planet itself. As if it hasn't been changing for the passed 500 million years far more dramatically.
climate change is a threat to HUMAN life and other species. As you said, the planet will remain here. What we need to decide is if we are keen on keeping our own species alive.
Agree.. According to glaciation and de glaciation natural cycle now planet has to cool down and gradually move to ice age...but we humans made it opposite now it is warming up...that human intervention in natural cycle is climate change.. hope it make sense
Safemoon negative carbon credit
Carbon dioxide is not the problem but more mangroves the better
