Researchers in Greenland have discovered that vast underwater kelp forests could be far more effective at capturing carbon and combating climate change than previously understood. This finding opens promising new avenues for natural climate solutions, showing that ocean ecosystems hold greater potential for environmental restoration than scientists had realized.
