Rewilding Seen as a Way to Save Atoll Islands From Rising Seas

Original: How Rewilding Could Help Atoll Islands Keep Pace With Rising Seas

New reporting from Inside Climate News examines how rewilding native vegetation and ecosystems on atoll islands could help them keep pace with rising sea levels. The idea is that restored habitats, such as seabird colonies and healthy reefs, can build up sediment and elevation naturally, giving low-lying islands a better chance of surviving as oceans rise.

Why now: Concern about sea-level rise threatening low-lying island nations is driving interest in nature-based adaptation solutions.
