For a week, we've been dropping hints. Today, you meet coccolithophores.

They've been working without recognition for millions of years, but now we are making things right.

Join the initiative by sharing this post and using #CoccolithophoreDay.

But what you see from space... is a living microcosm below the surface. Billions of microscopic artists create masterpieces that shape our climate, feed marine life, and record planetary history in their calcium armour.

You will get to know them in 3 days.

They are architects building houses while floating through oceans. They are engineers capturing atmospheric carbon, atom by atom. They are... microscopic?

While you breathe, they work. While you sleep, they build. While you read this, they're protecting our climate system.

Who are they?
