US Energy Information Administration just confirmed that virtually all new American electricity generating capacity in 2026 will come from #solar, #wind, and #batteries — a combined buildout roughly equivalent to constructing 70 new #nuclear power plants in a single year.
🌊 Kelp forests are estimated to be losing ~1.8% (~11,500 km²) of their area annually. The striking part? The carbon-sink capacity lost from the climate-driven decline is 1,000–10,000× larger than the gains achieved via seaweed restoration, afforestation & farming. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
Seaweed carbon removal cannot keep up with climate-driven loss
Seaweed forests are widely viewed as natural climate solutions, yet warming oceans are driving their rapid decline. This Essay reveals that losses are outpacing restoration efforts by orders of magnit...
