Salt marshes along the U.S. South Atlantic coast provide vital habitat, buffer shorelines, mitigate climate impacts, and more.
Now, a new framework can help communities, the military, and governments take action to protect them👇 pew.org/3BvbHqF

Great news for Florida's west coast.
BREAKING: Florida just approved an extensive plan for conserving 700 sq. miles of vital coastal habitat—home to mangrove islands, salt marshes, oysters, sponges, corals, and more than 350,000 acres of seagrass. pew.org/3ZOPtKG

Mapping and monitoring seagrass is a critical part of conserving the valuable habitat. Our Aaron Kornbluth is at @ISBW14 today working to find the right approach for global seagrass assessments. pew.org/3doHtg2

Seagrass helps buffer North Carolina shorelines from storms, provides vital habitat and more—but threats are mounting.
Today, our @LedaSea123, @NCDEQ partners, and others are discussing what’s needed at @ISBW14. Key background👇 pew.org/3zV5cNL

Florida’s Nature Coast is home to the Gulf of Mexico’s largest seagrass meadow. But changing ocean conditions & degraded water quality can threaten the habitat.
Our @JustinGrubich discusses today at @ISBW14—see what’s needed for effective stewardship👇 pew.org/3PZlyL2

Sediment tubes can restore seagrass prop scars in the #NatureCoast without needing expensive planting or caging! Ask Dr. Savanna Barry how at #isbw14 @seagrads @pewenvironment

Excited and honored to be a part #isbw14!
Healthy seagrass hosts manatees, turtles, and other Gulf of Mexico wildlife that support jobs, tourism, fishing, wildlife viewing and more. How wildlife and economies benefit from these underwater meadows. #isbw14 pew.org/3vwd3hh
