Planting mangroves in the UAE

We plant mangrove trees in areas designated by the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment to support the UAE government’s strategic goal for achieving Net Zero by 2050 as a nation

Key call outs for the project:

Mangroves are a vital part of UAE’s natural ecosystem playing a critical role in mitigating climate change.
Mangroves can capture and store carbon as effectively as wild rain forests.
Providing natural habitats for baby fish and other sea creatures, mangroves protect and enhance biodiversity.
