G7 Declining of Mangrove Community in Malaysia
Summary
TLDRThe script discusses the importance of mangrove ecosystems, highlighting their role in coastal protection, biodiversity, and economic benefits. It focuses on the decline of mangrove forests in Malaysia due to human activities such as pollution, tourism, and deforestation. The Mantan Mangrove Forest Reserve and Redang Island are used as examples, showing how contamination and unregulated tourism harm these ecosystems. Proposed solutions include stricter regulations, reducing tourist capacity, replanting mangroves, and holding developers accountable. The script emphasizes the need for community responsibility and government intervention to protect and restore these vital habitats.
Takeaways
- 🌳 **Mangrove Ecosystems**: Mangroves are trees that thrive in coastal intertidal zones, particularly in hot countries. They form a unique ecosystem with a rich biodiversity.
- 📍 **Geographical Distribution**: In Malaysia, mangroves are spread across 630,188 hectares, with significant portions in Sabah (26%), Sarawak (13%), and Peninsular Malaysia.
- 🌿 **Examples of Mangrove Forests**: Notable mangrove forests in Peninsular Malaysia include the Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve and the Kuala Selangor Nature Park.
- 🐉 **Biodiversity**: Mangrove forests support a vast array of species, including algae, crustaceans, fish, birds, and mammals, contributing to a complex food web.
- 🔍 **Ecological Importance**: These forests play a crucial role in water filtration, coastal protection, and providing habitats for various species.
- 📉 **Decline of Mangroves**: Mangrove communities are facing a significant decline due to human activities and rapid economic development, leading to a reduction in shoreline length.
- 🚨 **Environmental Impact**: The decline of mangroves can lead to soil erosion and loss of habitat for many species, impacting the overall health of coastal ecosystems.
- 🌊 **Contamination Issues**: Pollution, particularly from human settlements and tourism, has led to contamination of water and sediments in mangrove areas, posing health risks.
- 🏞️ **Tourism Development**: Unregulated tourism development in areas like Redang Island has resulted in deforestation and increased sedimentation, harming mangrove ecosystems.
- 🛠️ **Solutions**: Addressing the decline of mangroves requires responsible actions from local communities, government monitoring, and enforcement, as well as corporate accountability in development practices.
Q & A
What is a mangrove ecosystem?
-A mangrove ecosystem is a group of trees and other organisms that live in the coastal intertidal zone, characterized by a unique ability to survive in harsh, saline environments.
In which regions of Malaysia are mangrove forests predominantly found?
-In Malaysia, mangrove forests are predominantly found in Sabah, Sarawak, and Peninsular Malaysia, with significant distributions in all coastal states.
What are the two examples of mangrove forests mentioned in Peninsular Malaysia?
-The two examples of mangrove forests mentioned in Peninsular Malaysia are the Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve in Kota Kinabalu and the Kuala Selangor Nature Park.
Why are mangrove forests considered high productivity ecosystems?
-Mangrove forests are considered high productivity ecosystems due to their ability to support a wide range of biodiversity, including hundreds of species of algae, mollusks, crustaceans, fish, birds, and mammals.
What are the threats to the mangrove ecosystem mentioned in the script?
-The threats to the mangrove ecosystem mentioned include contamination from various types of potential human bacterial pathogens, ongoing tourism development, and large amounts of sedimentation.
How does contamination affect the mangrove ecosystem?
-Contamination affects the mangrove ecosystem by introducing harmful bacteria and pathogens into the water and sediments, which can lead to health risks for both wildlife and humans, and disrupt the natural balance of the ecosystem.
What is the significance of the Mantanani Island Mangrove Forest Reserve?
-The Mantanani Island Mangrove Forest Reserve is significant because it is a well-managed mangrove forest that has been under scientific management since the beginning of the 20th century and is considered one of the best-managed mangrove forests in the world.
What are the consequences of tourism development on Redang Island?
-The consequences of tourism development on Redang Island include the decrease in the population of mangrove trees due to deforestation for resort construction and increased sedimentation in the sea, which can negatively impact marine life and the overall ecosystem.
What solutions are proposed to address the decline of mangrove communities?
-The proposed solutions to address the decline of mangrove communities include responsible local integration to prevent further contamination, government monitoring and enforcement against polluters, and shareholder oversight of development activities to ensure environmental conservation.
What role does the government play in preserving mangrove ecosystems?
-The government plays a crucial role in preserving mangrove ecosystems by monitoring and taking action against individuals or companies causing contamination, enforcing strict laws to protect the environment, and working with stakeholders to implement conservation measures.
Outlines
🌳 Mangrove Ecosystems and Their Decline
The paragraph discusses the unique characteristics of mangrove trees and their ecosystems, which are found in coastal intertidal zones, particularly in Malaysia. It highlights the high productivity of these ecosystems, covering 630,1883 hectares across the country, with significant distributions in Sabah, Sarawak, and Peninsular Malaysia. The paragraph also mentions the Setiu Wetland, Kuala Selangor Nature Park, and the challenges faced by these ecosystems, such as contamination and sedimentation due to human activities. The decline in mangrove communities is a pressing issue, with shorelines reducing from 198 km in 1982 to 158 km in 2019, and it is predicted to further decrease. The paragraph concludes by emphasizing the importance of mangroves for timber, fishery, and as a habitat for various species, and the need for conservation efforts.
🐠 Impact of Contamination and Tourism on Mangroves
This paragraph delves into the specific issues of contamination and tourism development affecting mangrove ecosystems. It describes how contamination from human settlements and activities can lead to health risks due to the presence of harmful bacteria. The paragraph explains the process of contamination through the food chain, from zooplankton to humans, and the role of mangroves in filtering these contaminants. It also addresses the impact of tourism development on mangrove habitats, particularly on Redang Island, where deforestation for resort construction has led to a decline in mangrove populations and increased sedimentation. The paragraph suggests solutions such as responsible local integration, government monitoring, and replanting efforts to mitigate these issues and protect the mangrove environment.

freedom island is an island off of
Peninsular Malaysia that is part of a
Marine Park archipelago of corals and
thousands of fish and invertebrates
Redang Island is located 45 kilometer
from Kuala Terengganu Malaysia however
there are some issues and problems
occurred in radom islands first the
ongoing tourism development will affect
the population of main group and become
decreasing the large area of the tree
was cut down to construct more results
moreover a large amount of sedimentation
has been washed into the sea that is
near to the development how did this
issue happen
this happened with the mangrove tree
that will be cut off to clear the land
for the development of resorts
furthermore no attempt to defend
mangrove tree where developers was
undertaken but why did this happen it is
because the tourism industry in red of
Island has been expanded which is more
akaviri source will be will to
accommodate motorists as they receive
eight thousand tourists per day in the
big season then unprintable month can
change the main crop environment and
ecosystem
besides there is no strict law
enforcement towards the developer every
problem has had the solutions so the
solution to these problems and issue are
by deleting the number of tourist area
capacity in the radar island then
recruit more restricted area for
tourists
after that replanting my group 3 at the
restriction area where the tourism
activity did not take place
next the government must play an
important role to bend or find the
developers that not follow the
guidelines provided to save and conserve
the environment last but not least the
shareholder must monitor the development
activities of the company to provide any
developments that destroy the main proof
environment
