Preserving the ocean floor to protect marine life, capture carbon and regenerate the ocean.
By 2050...

That's 16% of all vehicles on the road worldwide.
Economic benefit:
For every euro invested, €5 in net profit would be generated.

Beneath the ocean's surface, where the light turns deep blue and life moves silently, lies an essential ecosystem: the seabed. This hidden landscape, made up of underwater grasslands, sandbanks and corals, is one of the great allies in the fight against climate change. Protecting these seabeds means conserving habitats that store enormous amounts of carbon, support thousands of species and maintain the balance of the ocean. Where there are healthy seabeds, there are fish, biodiversity and cleaner water. But there is also something else: safety for coastal communities. By restoring these ecosystems, we reinforce natural barriers against storms, support sustainable fisheries and open up new opportunities for ecotourism. This not only protects marine life, it also boosts local economies and creates green jobs that care for both the sea and people.

What can you do?
Support policies and projects that promote the protection and restoration of marine habitats, such as coral reefs and seagrass beds.
If you live near coastal areas, get involved in local initiatives to preserve marine ecosystems and protect the seabed.
