Sea Grass Restroration: Pioneeting Blue Carbon Ecosystems for Climate Action and Coastal Resilience

The seagrass restoration project has positively impacted both the environment and the community by raising awareness of seagrasses’ role in carbon sequestration and coastal protection. Despite weather-related delays in replanting, the team engaged the community through art exhibitions, informational materials, and public talks, while also presenting their research at a national conference, where they earned second prize. Their work combined technical research on seagrass growth with educational outreach, fostering greater local involvement and understanding of conservation efforts, and demonstrating the power of such initiatives to drive environmental and community-based change.
