Erica Anne Hamilton I posted this before, but NOT only does the ocean provide THREE times as much oxygen as rain forest, but sea grass beds absorb THIRTY FIVE TIMES as much C02 as the same size area of rain forest. My God shouldn't we be looking after it?

Mary Veira It’s true. Pity that some hotels here in Negril ripped out all the sea grass beds in front of their properties and NEPA allowed it. Then they spent money replanting seagrass - not easy. They crowed about it but failed to say that 84% did not take and was washed ashore. 🙄

Erica Anne Hamilton Mary Veira If you have a vast amount of sea grass bed and want to take out a small area for swimming, I would think that might be allright? I don't really know but I always think compromises are possible but it seems insane to rip out the whole thing when you don't really know what you are doing.
