Living Seawalls Absorb Waves Instead of Deflecting Them
Living seawalls merge robust engineering with natural ecology to defend coastlines effectively.

Initial investments yield enduring advantages in maintenance savings, cleaner waters, and resilient ecosystems that benefit both human settlements and natural surroundings.
