Mediterranean Posidonia Network

🌊Today, at #MonacoOceanWeek, we've launched the call for commitments to implement actions outlined in the Post-2020 MPA Roadmap. Join the process, as marine protected areas are everyone's business. More details will be available soon at ➡️ medmpaforum.org/roadmap/

The Mediterranean Posidonia Network is organising a round table next Wednesday at #MonacoOceanWeek!

🌱️Yesterday was the launching of an innovative initiative at #COP23Med #BarcelonaConvention, with the goal of safeguarding #Posidonia in the Mediterranean! Special thank to the @WWF Mediterranean, who presented the main findings about #bluecarbon financing mechanism.

Today at #BarcelonaConvention #COP23Med we focus on #sharks and rays: starting from concrete cases, we will discuss about spatial management, transboundary conservation and participatory approaches to achieve #30x30 target in the #Mediterranean Join us👇wwfeu.awsassets.panda.org/downloads/30x3…

Happy #WorldSeagrassDay! 🌱 Did you know that seagrass beds are our #ClimateAction ally? That's right! 🙌 As a part of our marine #WorldHeritage sites, they help store the same amount of carbon as about 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions in 2018. on.unesco.org/3kJOXOK

Happy World #Seagrass Day! 🌱💙 Learn more about this often under-appreciated but crucial marine habitat. 🎥👀👇 #WorldSeagrassDay

Today is World Seagrass Day! Did you know that seagrass is the only flowering plant that lives in the sea? It is a habitat and food source for many species and can be found in shallow, coastal waters. Here's a🧵to help you understand seagrass a bit better

It's #WorldSeagrassDay, a day to raise awareness about seagrass and its important marine ecosystem functions. Did you know, some species of seagrass can sequester carbon 35x faster than tropical rainforests, an important blue carbon ally, helping us fight climate change. 🌱

Seagrass: the lungs of the ocean 🫁 #WorldSeagrassDay

It’s #WorldSeagrassDay!🌊🌱 Here's a small reminder from @ProjectSeagrass of why seagrass is so amazing

Seagrasses are vital to #ClimateAction and biodiversity conservation. They: 🟢Purify ocean water 🟢Provide fish nurseries 🟢Capture and store carbon Find out more about their superpowers this #WorldSeagrassDay: un.org/en/observances…

Today we celebrate a true multitasking hero of the sea: seagrass. #Seagrass meadows 🌱 store huge amounts of carbon 🌱 protect our coasts from erosion 🌱 provide food & shelter for sea life and more! Happy #WorldSeagrassDay! #OceanEU #EUBiodiversity @EU_ENV @EUClimateAction

#WorldSeagrassDay In the Balearic Islands, Posidonia oceanica is vital habitat for a huge range of species. I shot this broad nose pipefish in shallow water, using its camouflage to hide in the seagrass. #wildlife #cameraman #underwater

It’s #WorldSeagrassDay!🌊🌱 🌱 Seagrass is found around the globe, from the tropics to the colder temperate and arctic regions. It supports high biodiversity, removes carbon from our atmosphere and can help protect our shorelines from erosion.
