1. Mangrove Action Project

has been working to save the mangrove forests since 1992. So many of the forests are destroyed to establish aquaculture, especially shrimp. I hope people do not partake of those shrimp. There are still wild-caught shrimp that are available and they do not require destruction of the mangrove forests.
This is a real grass roots organization started by a Boeing engineer who quit that job to save the mangrove forests. It has grown into an international effort. Let's hope they are successful.
