📰 Mangroves clean up $8.7 billion of nitrogen pollution annually, per study.
Nitrogen pollution is a known problem in agriculture, other human activities, and wreaks havoc in aquatic ecosystems.
➕ Add this to mangroves being valuable carbon sinks, coastal defense against storm surges, a buffer against erosion, among other benefits.
