Description - Let Them Eat Shrimp by Kennedy Warne
In Let Them Eat Shrimp, Kennedy Warne tells the stories of communities and individuals around the world that are affected by the loss of mangrove forests. In spite of their ecological, economic, and safety value, mangroves are being logged for pulp, bulldozed for agricultural land, reclaimed for urban development or increasingly, turned into ponds for shrimp farming and other aquaculture. At the current rate, almost all the world's mangroves will be gone within 100 years. In a compelling travel narrative, Warne shows why mangroves are so critical to the lives of so many.
