ENV is working with The Natural History Museum to compare krill recently collected by the British Antarctic Survey with specimens over 100 years old! 🦐 By better understanding these incredible creatures, we can learn more about the Southern Ocean Carbon Sink. 🌊
Krill have a genome 16 times longer than our own! Our researchers are part of a new project looking into how their genes have changes over the past 150 years, and how the crustaceans are changing. Find out how this could protect these tiny titans 👇 nhm.ac.uk/discover/news/…
🌊 Seaweed’s potential is huge! Not only is it a sustainable food source, but it also absorbs CO₂, supporting climate action and ocean health. 💚 What other seaweed benefits inspire you? 🌍 #bluecarbon #sustainability #climateaction nhm.ac.uk/discover/seawe…
