Mangroves protect our shores
The article “Environmental restoration at home: Sanibel volunteers grow mangroves,” posted March 27, was both enlightening and inspirational. The work of Coastal Watch and the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation is so important to the future of the Southwest Florida ecosystem.
As a newer resident to Southwest Florida, I have fallen in love with the mangroves and estuaries in this area. I take my dog, Layla, to Dog Beach in Bonita Springs often and we love wandering through the mangroves together.
The article stated how crucial mangroves are to the environment, a fact that we Floridians can sometimes overlook. Mangroves provide habitats for wildlife, incubate our seafood industry and protect our picturesque shorelines against erosion.
