Restoring coastal ecosystems offers more than just carbon storage: it can also help bring coral reefs back to life. This Perspective explores how the carbon captured by mangroves and other blue carbon systems could be used to support reef restoration, creating a powerful synergy between climate action and marine conservation. By aligning ecological benefits with innovative funding strategies, this approach offers a practical path towards more resilient coastlines and more durable climate solutions.
