Blue carbon's importance in preserving sustainable growth in the Red Sea in the face of climate change

The carbon stored in coastal and marine ecosystems is referred to as blue carbon. These habitats, which include mangroves, tidal marshes, and seagrass meadows, also provide important benefits for climate change adaptation, such as coastal protection and food security for many coastal people. However, if ecosystems are degraded or harmed, their ability to absorb carbon is compromised, and stored carbon is released, resulting in carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to climate change. (Fouda,2006) This research aims to safeguard wetland habitats of international and national importance, including threatened and endangered species and biodiversity, as well as to protect coastlines and increase resistance to storm surges and increasing sea levels. The study reveals various findings, such as Blue Carbon Ecosystems linked to the tourist industry as the primary destination place. This study analyzed interviews conducted with 18 officials and experts from the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Environment, the General Authority for Tourism Development, and the General Authority for Coastal Protection, to discuss how systems of Blue carbon environmental impacts and their impact on the increase of mangroves on the Red Sea coast, According to the study's findings, there are no mangrove trees except along the shores of the Red Sea mountain ranges, but their cultivation is limited. Among the recommendations are the participation of residents in projects to protect mangrove forests, reduce our carbon footprint by lowering carbon dioxide emissions, search for clean renewable energy sources, use them as an alternative to fuel and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
