Write any two ways of how the locals and the government restored Palk Bay. Restoration of Palk Bay

Answer»

Local communities, government and civic organisations all came together not just to conserve the remaining mangroves, but also to restore it.

  • Saplings of native species of plants and trees are being grown, planted and cared for.
  • Live colonies of coral from the Gulf of Mannar Biosphere Reserve are being transplanted to Palk Bay. The existing mangroves and the region are being mapped and the way land is used around the mangrove is being studied. 
  • The local communities are actively involved in the conservation and restoration of the mangroves. Education and awareness programmes about mangrove ecosystem are being undertaken.
