Mangroves naturally grow in the Volta delta, populating many estuary islands. This amazing tree can reduce flooding during the high tide by absorbing excess water, which it later releases slowly during low tide. Mangroves also filter out pollutants, and make a great habitat and spawning area for many endangered species.
Volta Revival plants mangrove trees and works with local communities to understand the importance of this critical tree in reducing the impacts of climate change and maintaining ecosystem balance.
