While natural carbon sinks exist, the effect of large-scale polluting gases is rising temperatures, making it harder for these carbon sinks — including forests and salt marshes — to thrive and ...

Many ocean carbon removal methods, like fertilization or biomass sinking, reduce oxygen levels and cause harm to marine ecosystems.

The continued loss of saltmarshes is threatening progress on climate goals – turning vital sinks into carbon sources and eroding natural coastal defences, warns a new global report published today.
