A New Blue Carbon Opportunity Opens

 
In the heart of Ghana's biodiverse Keta Lagoon region, economic and environmental challenges have severely degraded the once-expansive mangrove forest. For the local community, the impact of this ecosystem damage is far-reaching: seawater intrusion, plastic pollution, and coastal flooding have depleted the fisheries that they depend on for food security and livelihoods.

Yet the Regenerative Development of the Anlo Wetlands (ReDAW) project stands as a beacon of hope. Through the partnership of Seawater Solutions and Terraformation, the resilient communities of the Anlo Wetlands are on a mission to reclaim their mangroves — one of nature’s most powerful carbon sinks — and revive marine biodiversity.

Join us during this on-demand webinar as we uncover their inspiring journey towards sustainable restoration and economic empowerment for their communities for generations to come.
