These displaced people will need our long term attention and support for their LONG TERM REHABILITATION PLAN! FOR SUPPORT of FLOOD affected people of District Thatta; you may contact Zubeda Birwani Trust for Conservation of Coastal Resources (TCCR) Ph: +92 21 36027108 Email: tccr2009@gmail.com In the Pacific region, coastal ecosystems, as mangroves, are endangered. While population, coastal development, squatter settlements are increasing, demand for resources cause serious changes. Temperate changes, severe weather and floods making things worse for these vulnerable areas. Our members try to protect the mangroves to safeguard the critical roles they play as natural buffers against extreme weather, as carbon sinks and for increasing the resilience of communities to climate change. Mangroves are trees and shrubs that live in the area between the land and the sea. Their strong and complex root structures allow them to survive the roughest of weather and provide nursery grounds and protection for fish and other marine species that Pacific Islanders rely on for food and income. The presence of mangroves along coastlines and rivers provide the first line of defence against cyclones, high winds and storm surges, improve water quality. Healthy mangrove ecosystems are also important carbon sinks and play a significant role in the global reduction of greenhouse gases. Mangroves throughout the Pacific are being degraded or destroyed by their use as rubbish dumps, by overharvesting, and by tourism and housing development. Work with us to protect these very important eco-systems! |
