Description
While not exactly the idyllic white sandy beaches the tourists are after, the mangrove swamps that fringe Fiji�s coast in many areas are vital to the wellbeing of our ecosystems. Tangles of tall, arching aerial roots provide a natural refuge for breeding fish, crabs, and other marine organisms that are part of the local food chain. Mangroves also protect coastal areas from wave and storm surge erosion. Yet in many parts of Fiji, developers are clearing away these natural habitats to make way for yet another hotel or factory! �Refuge� was painted as a reminder that our planet will only continue to be a safe haven for all of us if �progress� means respecting and caring for our natural environment.
