#seagrass
Caribbean seagrass meadows store up to 35x more carbon than tropical rainforests because they grow year-round and trap carbon in dense roots and low-oxygen sediments, where it stays locked away for centuries. Protecting them protects climate, coasts, and marine life.

You said "seafood" not "fish" so I'm expecting it'll include sea cucumber, sea lettuce, seagrass... No land potatoes, land carrots, land peas...

Season’s greetings from the #RestoreTheMeadows team 🌿

We’ve wrapped up seagrass flowering collection for the season, harvesting ~20,000 flowers. These will support experiments next year to optimise light & sediment conditions for growing seagrass.

Thanks to everyone who supported us this year 🌊

Mangroves are often referred to as one of the “big three” marine ecosystems, along w/ salt marshes & seagrass beds. Between them, they account for >50% of carbon storage in oceans. Mangroves are surprisingly effective in reducing the speed & intensity of tsunamis & tidal surges.

Good news story!
