How can an invasive species help combat climate change? In this video, Alex Dainis explains how native seagrass is beneficial to local ecosystems because it serves as a nursery for young fish, and because it can take carbon from the atmosphere and lock it in the ocean.

In some parts of the Caribbean though, seagrass populations are increasing due to the arrival of an invasive species. This species sequesters carbon, but it does not provide protection for young fish. This demonstrates both the pros and the cons that invasive species can have!Genes in Action: [ Ссылка ] the world's largest science centers, the Museum of Science engages millions of people each year to the wonders of science and technology through interactive exhibitions, digital programs, giant screen productions, and preK – 12 EiE® STEM curricula through the William and Charlotte Bloomberg Science Education Center.
