Global heating is rapidly altering marine ecosystems.
Novel interventions are gaining traction to sustain ocean systems and ocean-dependent societies, but they come with risks. 💥
New @ScienceMagazine explores these interventions and their implications.

民間資金と科学者が中心となって、脱炭素のための大規模な海洋介入計画が進んでいる。海洋アルカリ化、高温耐性GMサンゴ、海藻大規模養殖、沿岸生態系再生など。リスクも大きいが、倫理・測定・公平のガバナンスが整備されてない。ちゃんとやろうという意見論文science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… Science (2025)

Novel ocean-based climate interventions are advancing faster than policies can keep up.
New research by @TH_Morrison calls for coordinated science, funding, policy & community engagement to ensure these solutions support global climate goals. @arc_gov_au jcu.edu.au/news/releases/202…

It's a collaboration amongst 24 international scientists, brought together in a SNAPP team:snappartnership.net/teams/go…
It introduces an overview of the diverse set of “novel marine-climate interventions”, in virtually every ocean basin 🌎🌍🌏 across 8 main intervention types:

Scoring examples of interventions across...

“Intervention Risks”,
“Governance Readiness”, &
“Policy Profile” ...

The paper outlines:
1️⃣Why the space of marine climate interventions poses particular challenges,
2️⃣ What these specific challenges are, and...
3️⃣ Which principles for governance can help address these challenges and risks.

In sum:
“Risks include opportunity cost, whereby overhyped interventions can crowd out less hyped but more effective solutions.”

“The very real hazard of maladaptation, whereby intervention risk outweighs climate benefit, could accelerate a parallel social- ecological crisis.”

Global heating is changing marine systems. 🌊 🌡️
In response, novel interventions are gaining traction fast.
They aim to sustain ocean systems and ocean-dependent societies - but come with risks. 💥
