Scientists tell us that ocean temperatures are now rising
Yet, many solutions for climate change are found in the ocean itself.
According to a new report up to 18% of the world's oceanic carbon is stored in seagrass.
They are critical ecosystems for species such as dugongs, seahorses and sea turtles
and provide nursery habitats for over 20% of the world's largest fisheries.
They improve water quality, protecting humans and vulnerable ecosystems such as coral reefs.
However, 7% of this key marine habitat is being lost worldwide per year
Major threats are chemical run-off, destructive fishing, development and climate change.
However, areas that have addressed threats have recovered seagrass successfully.
