The International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystems is celebrated annually on July 26. This day was established by the United Nations to highlight the importance of mangrove forests and to raise awareness about their conservation. Mangroves are crucial for coastal protection, supporting biodiversity, and providing resources for local communities. They act as natural buffers against storms and erosion, store carbon, and offer habitat for a wide range of species.
The day aims to encourage efforts to protect and restore these vital ecosystems, as they are often threatened by deforestation, pollution, and climate change. Events and activities on this day typically focus on educating the public, promoting sustainable practices, and fostering community involvement in mangrove conservation.
