This new publication summarizes a workshop that explored the potential to restore and
manage coastal habitats, particularly coastal wetlands, as a viable carbon dioxide removal approach (often termed coastal blue carbon).
Whether it's overfishing, marine pollution, loss of
coastal habitats like mangroves, or the ever growing threat of climate change and ocean acidification, there are plenty of reasons for this disturbing decline — and I suspect most TreeHugger readers are familiar with the disastrous way that human beings have
managed our oceans.
