Every year, an additional 8 million tonnes of plastic is deposited into the ocean. In addition to plastic waste, 30 to 40% of carbon emissions from cars, buses, airplanes, and manufacturing plants are absorbed by the ocean, causing chemical imbalance in sea water i.e. Ocean Acidification.

The Environmental Protection Agency’s AgStar program trains farmers to turn animal waste into biofuel using anaerobic digesters, but it is optional — 8,000 farms could implement it, but only about 250 have done so. It can reverse ocean acidification by absorbing carbon dioxide. And as a review published by the U.N.

Until recently, ocean sequestration, also known as blue carbon, attracted little attention outside academic and think-tank circles. We might be at a turning point, however, because a handful of forward-looking corporations, conservation organizations and startups recently have accelerated efforts to store carbon in marine systems.

Habitats for plants, animals and micro-organisms vital to soil health and food production. In the food sector, which accounts for more than half of this pressure, deforestation, overfishing and plastic waste are among the biggest issues, while energy impacts come from pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
