"Because the living ocean is so vital to our survival and because it is under such tremendous threat, it needs us to speak on its behalf." — Carl Safina, ecologist and author. Our coastlines, blue carbon ecosystems, mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrasses are some of the most powerful tools against climate change. These ecosystems protect our shores from erosion and storms and 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗯 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝟭𝟬𝘅 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 than terrestrial forests, making them vital carbon sinks. Yet, these ecosystems are under threat. Coastal development, pollution, and climate change erode our natural defenses and release stored carbon into the atmosphere. By protecting and restoring our coastlines, we’re investing in a sustainable future and preserving the power of blue carbon to help mitigate climate change.
