Blue carbon | How seagrass is our ocean's wonder plant and their role in fighting climate change

Humble seagrass beds contain 18% of the world’s oceanic carbon and can absorb CO2 35 times as fast as tropical forests. Help us tell world leaders it’s time to take seagrasses seriously and sign our open letter below: https://act.ejfoundation.org/bluecarbon

Blue carbon ecosystems like seagrass meadows play a huge role in fighting climate chaos. We call on national governments to recognise the critical importance of our ocean and blue carbon in the fight against the climate emergency.
