Coastal Saltmarsh Revival
Essex Wildlife Trust + Environment Agency
From farmland to bird sanctuary: one breached sea wall became nature's fortress against climate chaos. What was 300 years of flood defence is now thriving blue carbon storage — 87 hectares of saltmarsh protecting Essex's coast from within. Proof that sometimes the boldest restoration is simply letting the sea back in.
