PNG Ports Limited continues on its commitment to a greener, more sustainable future by planting 500 more mangroves in Motukea. PNG Ports stated that this also marks the second phase of the “Motukea Mangrove Conservation and Rehabilitation” project. “This project is being carried out through a partnership between TotalEnergies PNG, ICTSI South Pacific and PNG Ports. In phase one, last June, we planted about 700 mangroves also in Motukea. We are proud to be part of this project which also complements our ongoing Port Foreshore Protection project, across the port network,” PNG Ports stated. PNG Ports added that this port foreshore project is in response to the effects of climate change such as rising sea tides and erosion, and changes in the ecosystem and biodiversity. “These have become increasingly common along our coastlines, and this pressing issue impacts not only our natural environment but also the very foundation of our business at PNG Ports. PNG Ports is also in the process of implementing its 30 Year Infrastructure Master Plan which will see all 15 ports upgraded, and one of the key focus areas in these upgrades includes measures to make port infrastructure more resilient to climate change impacts,” PNG Ports concluded.
