Coastal Areas and Land Use Management

Coastal areas are regions where land meets the ocean, supporting diverse ecosystems and human activities like fishing, tourism, and development. Land use management in these zones involves planning and regulating how land is used to balance economic growth, environmental protection, and community needs. It includes creating policies to prevent overdevelopment, manage resources sustainably, and protect coastal habitats from erosion, pollution, and climate change. Effective management ensures these valuable areas remain healthy and resilient, supporting both local communities and the environment for future generations.
