Mangrove forests play a vital role in combating climate change and biodiversity loss through carbon storage and shoreline protection, but are disappearing due to various industries. The concept of "mangrove-positive action" is gaining momentum, with businesses recognizing the benefits of healthy mangrove ecosystems. Initiatives in Southeast Maluku, Indonesia, and Belize showcase successful community-led approaches to sustainable management and conservation. By scaling solutions and fostering partnerships, investments, and policies, businesses can contribute to halting mangrove loss and building resilient coastal economies for a sustainable future.
