Happy World Ocean Day 🌎 💙 Did you know that all living things are carbon reservoirs? Animals that are larger and live longer store more carbon, which is why marine megafauna like whales play a vital role in reducing emissions. On average, a whale that survives to be 60 will accumulate a whopping 33 tonnes of CO2 on average during its lifespan — so effectively, whales live on a diet of carbon, not fish! Protecting whales is one of the ocean’s many remarkable solutions for tackling the climate crisis.
