Mangrove forests are being destroyed at an alarming rate. As of 2022, 71% of Indonesia’s Mangrove trees are damaged, however their forests are a vital habitat for fish and help protect coastal communities from land erosion, floods, and tsunamis. To combat this deforestation and help restore the environment, Makarim & Taira S. (Indonesia) planted 250 mangrove trees at the Mangrove Ecotourism Center PIK in Jakarta during the first week of June in collaboration with The Jakarta Mangrove Community.
