4Ocean Bracelet 2018 Edition: Mangroves & Estuaries

When you purchase the 4Ocean Limited Edition Marine Nursery Bracelet, 4Ocean will remove one pound of trash from the ocean and coastlines as well as help protect estuaries and restore mangrove forests where many baby sea animals are born and sheltered as they mature. This bracelet represents your support.

If all rivers lead to the ocean, estuaries are where those waters meet. Located in every climate estuaries are at every latitude, anywhere fresh water meets the ocean...at the end of rivers in coastal plains, much like the Chesapeake Bay; in fjords, for which Norway, Greenland, and New Zealand are known; around sandbars, like the North Carolina Outer Banks, and in tectonic areas like the San Francisco Bay.

Mangroves are an especially crucial part of the marine ecosystem in tropical and subtropical estuaries, serving as nurseries for baby sea animals. The largest mangroves forests are in Indonesia, Brazil, Australia, Nigeria, and Mexico. They also call the tidal coasts of South Florida home. While they’re one of the most productive ecosystems in the world, mangrove forests also are one of the most threatened. By 2100 it’s estimated that we’ll lose these critical ecosystems unless we take drastic and immediate action to protect and restore mangroves.

The world would be a very different place without mangroves and estuaries. To help protect these critical ecosystems from the effects of ocean pollution, 4Ocean has captains and crews cleaning the ocean and coastlines, including mangrove forests, seven days a week. By purchasing the Limited Edition Marine Nursery Bracelet, you’ll pull a pound of trash while helping protect and restore the mangrove forests and estuaries that many baby sea animals call home.
