Macroalgae's Role in Mitigating Climate Change

Description

Seaweed emerges as a crucial ally in mitigating human-induced climate change. With its ability to sequester carbon dioxide and counteract ocean acidification, seaweed offers promising solutions. Through carbon sequestration, seaweed absorbs significant carbon dioxide, reducing global emissions. The concept of Blue Carbon underscores seaweed's role in carbon absorption within coastal ecosystems, fostering biodiversity conservation and ecosystem resilience. Additionally, seaweed presents sustainable opportunities in biofuel production, agriculture, and various industries due to its rich nutritional profile and bioactive compounds. Harnessing seaweed's potential not only aids in climate change mitigation but also contributes to marine conservation and sustainable resource management.
