Blue Carbon
Oceans are the world's largest carbon sinks. Significant amounts of this carbon, stored in coastal ecosystems such as mangroves and seagrasses, are referred to as Blue Carbon and play a vital role in mitigating climate change.
What is Blue Carbon?
Blue carbon refers to the carbon captured and stored by coastal ecosystems like mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrass meadows. These natural carbon sinks play a crucial role in mitigating climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Beyond climate change mitigation, Blue Carbon ecosystems provide numerous benefits, including coastal protection, biodiversity conservation, and supporting fisheries. Protecting and restoring these vital ecosystems is essential for maintaining ecological and economic stability.
