“Fear and Anxiety in the minds of people of Goa towards lack of sense of responsibility for preservation of mangrove ecosystems, Today being International Day for Conservation of Mangrove Ecosystem let us ensure ZERO tolerance towards destruction of mangroves, as Mangrove trap sediments which come from the rivers, they stabilise the land and help in building up the land. They prevent erosion and in case of climate change, they absorb carbon dioxide  and transfer it to the root system where the carbon remains trapped in the root system for atleast 100 years as long as the mangrove lives, the carbon dioxide that is trapped is not brought back into circulation which is the mitigating effect.
