After over three billion years of evolution
in the
oceans, multi-cellular
life — beginning with green algae, fungi, and plants (liverworts, mosses, ferns, then vascular and flowering plants)-- began adapting to land habitats by creating a new «hypersea,» and adding anomalous shades of green to Earth's coloration

About BIOACID: Since 2009,
more than 250 BIOACID scientists from 20 German research institutes have investigated how different marine organisms respond to
