Hello. We are four 11-year-old students from Symbiosis International School in Viman Nagar, Pune. We are raising funds and awareness for mangroves. Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees. They can survive in harsh conditions. Their strong roots protect us from storms and tsunamis. Mangrove forests can store 3 to 4 times more carbon than mature tropical forests. Unfortunately, mangroves are being cut for wood and for space for infrastructure. If these trees protect us, why don't we protect them back? This is why we are raising funds for mangroves. We will donate the funds to a trusted mangrove NGO.
