Venice lagoon's salt marshes absorb CO2 more efficiently than land forests

In the Venetian lagoon, scientists and environmental groups are working to protect "barene" — salt marshes made of mud and vegetation that absorb CO2 and store it in the soil more efficiently than land forests. These natural buffers face threats from erosion and rising sea levels. The marshes play a role in slowing climate breakdown.

Have you ever visited a coastal ecosystem that felt fragile or under threat?
