Coastal ecosystems: dynamic environments between land and sea

Coastal ecosystems include mangroves, coral reefs, estuaries and salt marshes… Essential transition zones, they provide vital ecosystem services, such as protecting coasts from erosion, filtering pollutants, sequestering carbon and maintaining marine biodiversity. Despite their importance, they are under serious threat from urbanization, pollution, overfishing, climate change and rising sea levels.

By rewarding the project of a woman or a group of women committed to coastal ecosystems, the Yves Rocher Foundation supports their preservation and encourages the resilience of coastal communities in the face of global change.

Coastal areas, natural spaces in danger

  • 20% of the world’s land surface is coastal.
  • Mangroves: These cover around 137,760 km² worldwide, but lost 35% of their total surface area between 1980 and 200
  • Coral reefs More than 500 million people depend on coral reefs for their livelhood. However, around 50% of the world’s coral reefs are already dead or severely degraded.
  • Coastal wetlands: Coastal wetlands have declined by 50% since 1900, due to anthropogenic pressure and climate change.
  • Sea-level rise: By 2100, sea levels could rise by between 0.6 and 1.1 meters, directly threatening 680 million people living in coastal areas.
