Come to get informed. Leave inspired. Join us for our latest episode of Netting Zero, The New York Times's virtual event's series on climate change. 🌿
Oceans are a crucial part of the biosphere, soaking up carbon dioxide, absorbing more than 90 percent of the excess heat trapped on Earth from carbon emissions and producing half of global oxygen. But as we continue to pump greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, the strain is taking its toll. Action is imperative, but how do we unlock and accelerate ocean-oriented solutions without repeating the mistakes of the past?
