Sand dunes can be destroyed through various human activities, such as urban development, agriculture, and off-road vehicle use, which disrupt their natural formation and stability. Additionally, coastal erosion and climate change can lead to the loss of sand dunes by altering wind patterns and reducing sand supply. Natural events like storms and flooding can also significantly erode and reshape dune structures. Conservation efforts, such as vegetation planting and restricted access, are essential to protect and restore these vital ecosystems.
