It not only plays multiple ecological functions essential to its surrounding habitats, mangroves are also extremely important resource to human communities as well. Mangroves are survivor, growing where land and water meet and protect the environment by protecting coastal areas and communities from storm surges, waves and typhoons. Despite of the goods they do there are still some issues that threatened the existence of the mangrove ecosystem. Unfortunately, human activities are the main factor contributing to the destruction and degradation of mangrove forests. This paper contains the literature

Without any laws and policies covering the safety of mangroves it might be fully exploited by human activities and eventually this natural ecosystem might be destroyed as a whole. Human awareness and enriching the knowledge about mangroves being essential to life should be given an attention in order to ensure that the existing mangrove forests will be maintain and preserve in a sustainable manner for the use and benefit of the present and future generation. The future generation deserve to get and to meet their own needs so it means that responsible management of natural resources are needed wisely so that it will not come to extinction and will be last forever. The question, “What are the importance of the mangrove forests to human well-being and to the health of the planet?” will be further discuss to broaden the information humankind have that will be used as a starting point in making a big realization on the negative impacts of their actions. And the true importance of these great and productive ecosystems, that it holds numerous benefits to both the ecological world and the society alike. Open the mind of human race that mangroves serve as a protection, as a shelter to virtually every single organisms of nature. It is true that almost every living thing needs a safe place to grow when it is still young, small and fragile away from many predators. Therefore, mangroves are good nurseries because they provide hiding places for young animals and to highlight that each living organism has the right to live in undisturbed and in healthy environment. Living in a decent surrounding away from cruel act and without sacrificing their life in a way that its true purpose was left behind and therefore will result to unproductivity because of the changes occur in the way organisms should
