However, sand dredging on the mangroves is impacting the people who live and thrive in these forests as well as the oceans surrounding them. For over a decade, the government of Cambodia has granted several private companies concessions to mine these mangrove forests for sand. Each year, millions of metric tons of sand are shipped to Singapore to enlarge this island nation’s land mass, while Cambodia destroys its only natural protection against erosion, rising sea levels, tsunamis, and hurricanes and lays waste to a vital and fragile ecosystem that thousands of families depend on for their livelihood. Phalla Vy, a young Cambodian islander, bears witness to the destruction of her home in this short from filmmaker Kalyanee Mam co-produced by Emergence Magazine and Go Project Films. https://emergencemagazine.org/story/lost-world/ https://goprojectfilms.com/films/lost-world/ Read more in "Sand mining threatens ways of life, from Cambodia to Nigeria" https://on.natgeo.com/2vkNOQq About National Geographic: National Geographic is the world's premium destination for science, exploration, and adventure.
