1. I hope they are planting only native species - to save that fragile ecosystem.

2. 80 million mangrove trees have been planted and the ecosystem has been completely restored!

A quote from the article. A very inspirational accomplishment.

3. Indeed! Mangroves are a great buffer against rising sea levels.
