SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This report explores the potential for mitigating the impacts of climate change by improved management and protection of marine ecosystems and especially the vegetated coastal habitat, or blue carbon sinks. The objective of this report is to highlight the critical role of the oceans and ocean ecosystems in maintaining our climate and in assisting policy makers to mainstream an oceans agenda into national and international climate change initiatives. While emissions' reductions are currently at the center of the climate change discussions, the critical role of the oceans and ocean ecosystems has been vastly overlooked.--Publisher's description.
