Brazil’s coastlines and the wildlife they contain are protected by mangrove forests and floodplains: the forests serve as shelter for fish and other animals, while also prevents soil erosion and literally holding the coastline together.
With more than 39 expeditions to the Amazon, over 350 new plants discovered and 23 books published, Sir Ghillean will be talking about the biology and ecology of these forests, and the sustainability required to protect them.
