Abstract
Over the last few years, there’s been a lot of hope placed in seaweed as a way to tackle climate change.
The excitement stemmed from studies suggesting seaweed could be scaled up to capture and store
huge quantities of carbon dioxide, taking advantage of rapid growth rates, large areas, and long-term
storage in the deep ocean.
