Trip to Kuala Selangor ... (3)

               Many people would have only thought that planting a tree in the mangrove is not an easy feat. But after I went trip to Kuala Selanger, I realized how important they are. But why should we care about our mangrove forests? Did you even know that they are one of the strongest barriers, which protect us against hurricanes, soil erosion, flooding and tsunamis. 


         Besides mangroves have a very unique ecosystem that supports diverse life to endangered species including crabs, white-bellied eagles, silvered-leaf monkeys, crocodiles, mudskippers and smooth otters are some of the other residents in the mangroves.


         I think it’s very important for us to help to save the planet. Think about it? Mangrove plants in Malaysia had approximately decreased. I predict that it would be much worse next time. Due to the pollution, several mangroves have destroyed. As I am a global warrior, I would like to Participate in plantations of mangroves at possible areas in order to protect our environment.
