Do you know what [wiki title=”Mangrove”]Mangroves[\/wiki] are?\u00a0 The\u00a026th of July 2018 is what some\u00a0call the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem.\u00a0 You are probably thinking what, mangroves?\u00a0 Our Sustainable\u00a0 Solutions Ocean Opportunities on Small Island States (SOS_IS) joins the UN Ocean Conference Community of Ocean Action on Mangroves today in celebration.<\/p>\n

\"\"Our approach to mangroves is not to just design an optimal preservation, but to also explore the best way to better educate ourselves and others about the experiential value of mangroves with their role in all that is rapidly changing.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve also done some replanting with youth in Fiji, along the way for conservation.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve educated tourists about the importance of mangroves, not only for the preservation of islands but also as a nursery for most aquatic life\u2019s early years sheltering a host of marine organisms. We\u2019ve witnessed mangroves to be a safe nursery for baby dolphins and other cetaceans to play and grow. We intend to show how mangroves are a breeding ground for baby sharks and other fish.<\/p>\n

We are examining other regions in different parts of the world\u2019s mangrove parks and preserves for design, and how they made use of mangrove trees, with gazeboes, providing canopies for this natural arboretum.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The mangroves root system\u2019s water purification has much we plan to look at more closely for bio-mimicry, design, and observation of nature\u2019s critical ecosystem for public education.<\/p>\n

We have updated our SOS-IS\u2018s website<\/a> here:\u00a0 http:\/\/sos-is.org<\/a><\/p>\n
