The ocean covers over 70% of the Earth鈥檚 surface and can hold more than 150 times the amount of carbon dioxide as air. Around a quarter of CO2 emissions created by human activity each year is absorbed by them. From phytoplankton to whales to seagrass meadows, we explore how this happens.
And in climate news, we hear about the wildfires and drought affecting Chile.

Hosts Jordan Dunbar and Kate Lamble speak with:

Rita Steyn, Contributing Editor at The Marine Diaries and lecturer at University of Tampa, Florida
Michael Yap is a Marine Biologist and Founder of Seagrass Guardians, Malaysia
Dr. Haimanti Biswas, Principal Scientist of Biological Oceanography at CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography, India
Dr. Annette Scheffer, Marine Biologist and Lecturer, speaking with us from Antarctica
