Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems throughout the Philippines are constantly threatened. In most cases, the basis of the threat is simple economic gain. Such exploitation of mangroves may either be direct as in the case of clearcutting and conversion to fishpond or indirect in the case of fuelwood gathering, charcoal production and timber extraction. The economic advantage associated with mangrove exploitation has, in the past, been counted as a socially valuable contribution to the human community. In recent year's however, a rising chorus of voices has questioned the nature of such advantage, asserting that this exploitation represents net cost of society.
