    Beneath the turquoise waters of Australia’s World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Coast is one of the planet’s largest fringing coral reefs. Although highly protected and recognized for its biodiversity, many of its animals depend on a less-protected area on the other side of the cape: Exmouth Gulf. Mission Blue / Sylvia Earle Alliance Hope Spot Champion Ben Fitzpatrick has led his team on an expedition to the gulf’s unexplored waters. Using the latest technology in drones and underwater photography, they are surveying its incredibly biodiverse wildlife and proving how important the area is to the region and to the nearby Ningaloo Reef.

    The first global mangrove assessment for IUCN’s Red List of Ecosystems shows over half of the world’s mangrove ecosystems are at risk of collapse. Mangroves are threatened by deforestation, development, pollution, and dam construction, but the risk to these ecosystems is increasing due to sea-level rise and the increased frequency of severe storms associated with #climate change. In the absence of #conservation action, about 7,065 km2 of mangroves will be lost, and some 16% submerged underwater. Restoration, the establishment of coastal protection areas and community engagement are some of the strategies we can use to help protect these environments. Learn more http://buff.ly/3UUY9hx
