La Ensenada, Colombia 2017.
Thank you New York Times for including “Dulce” in your Op-Docs series. This film calls attention to the effects of climate change by highlighting a story in a small, seaside town on Colombia’s west coast, La Ensenada.
Along with the other female residents, Betty Arboleda and her daughter Dulce, harvest pianguas by hand daily to support their family. The piangua black clam thrives within the carbon rich environment of mangrove forests. By adhering to minimum capture sizes and rotation schemes; they support a healthy breeding population and conserve the mangrove forest around them.
Not only do Mangrove forests create a safe buffer in the event of a storm surge; but they are natural carbon scrubbers, taking CO2 from the atmosphere and storing it in their rich soil.
This story is important because Dulce’s experience is not unique, but merely an example of the damage climate change is causing today and tomorrow, not a theoretical distant future.
Conservation International has brought me around the world to witness the wonders of our natural environment, and the urgency of taking steps to protect the balance of complex ecosystems.
Join me in helping to preserve mangrove forests and piangua farming by visiting the Conservation International website and donating to the conservation fund; Save the Surf.
