Happy World Oceans Day! 🌊 A great day to support @SeaweedGen, an amazing ocean-based CDR company that not only removes carbon, but improves costal ecosystems by removing invasive sargassum seaweed. Do you know an ocean enthusiast? Send them a @thanksatonearth seaweed CDR card

In the ocean, sargassum seaweed is a very natural and important part of the sea turtle environment; the leafy mat provides sanctuary and nutrients, however, on our beaches, it can certainly provide an impediment for them reaching the sea. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #SargassoSea

A recent @NOAA_AOML study found a massive #Sargassum seaweed invasion throughout the Caribbean & West Africa in summer 2011 may have been kicked off by an extreme #climate event in the North Atlantic the previous winter. Learn how at aoml.noaa.gov/extreme-climat… Photo: Mark Yokoyama

Out at sea, Sargassum provides habitat, food, protection, & breeding grounds for hundreds of marine species. As it accumulates close to coastlines, it can negatively impact tourism, fishing, navigation, & nearshore ecosystems. Sargassum FAQ: bit.ly/3O1TiJF Credit: @WHOI

A 5,000-mile-long mass of sargassum slowed the boats as they race to Newport. The Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt doesn’t just impact the teams, it affects wildlife, infrastructure and peoples’ health. Click on the video to learn more 👇 #TheOceanRace #RacingWithPurpose
