Posidonia seagrass, the "lungs" of the Mediterranean, stores more carbon than the Amazon and provides vital oxygen and habitats. However, global warming threatens its survival. In Tunisia, efforts are underway to plant more seagrass to combat climate change, invasive species, and human activity. Researchers emphasise the need to protect this crucial marine plant to safeguard the environment.
