Algae

Blue Carbon: Carbon stored in marine and coast land ecosystems, ex: mangroves, salt marshes, seagrass meadows. They capture and store Carbon dioxide CO2 from the atmosphere, helps mitigate climate change.

How does it work?

Carbon Sequestration: Coastal plants absorb CO2 through photosynthesis and stores it in their biomass (roots
