Reception

In the Manatee VCC we are working together to better understand manatees and the threats they are exposed to. We want to ensure that conflicts between human activities and these large herbivores are minimal. Manatees live in shallow, marshy coastal areas and rivers, and there are many possibilities of conflicts between these great animals and humans. We want to ensure that manatees have sufficient habitats in Florida and beyond and are not too much impacted by human activities.

If you would like to join us in our efforts, please sign up as a member of this VCC.

The report underlines that the fight for an equal and habitable world has to be a fight against a system that rewards extraction and depletion of all resources and requires infinitely growing consumption devouring the Earth's life-support system; a system designed to increase inequality and sustain the exploitation of almost all to serve the greed of a few!
