Mangrove Forests Start To Recover After Years Of Damage

Mangrove forests grow in wet coastal areas. Many were cut down or damaged by people for decades. This hurt wildlife and made coasts less safe. Now, scientists say mangroves are coming back. They are growing again in some places. This is good news for people who live near the sea. Mangroves can protect the shore from waves and storms. They also help the climate by storing carbon in the soil. The forests need time, but the recovery is a hopeful sign.
