Details

Salubris plans to work with industry partners to reintroduce tidal flows in areas impacted by industrial activities over the last 50 years. Leading scientific agencies indicate the restoration of mangrove forests, salt marshes and seagrass meadows can sequester carbon more than 10 times faster than mature tropical forests.
