Guayaquil, Ecuador, sits on the upper stretches of the Guayas River estuary, adjacent to a 235-square-mile (608-sq.-km) network of tributaries and mangrove forests. Since the 1970s, commercial shrimp farms have become commonplace in the estuary, leading to mangrove deforestation. This presents a conflict for Guayaquil, which benefits from shrimp exporting but is the planet’s fourth-most vulnerable city to future flooding due to climate change.

The Sundarbans is a region that covers 3,900 square miles (10,000 square km) of southern Bangladesh and a small section of Eastern India. This region is densely covered by mangrove forests and contains the largest natural reserve for the Bengal tiger. Over the past two centuries, approximately 2,600 square miles (6,700 square km) of the Sundarbans’ land has been developed.
