What is Kelp? Kelp Benefits
In this video, we'll be exploring the incredible world of kelp forests, which are found in temperate and cold waters around the world. These large, brown seaweeds are more than just a pretty sight - they're an essential part of the marine ecosystem, providing a home and food for a wide range of creatures. From sea otters to whales, from fish to crustaceans, the kelp forest is a bustling metropolis of underwater life.
We'll learn how kelp forests are similar to terrestrial forests in many ways, but also unique in their ability to grow incredibly fast, sometimes as much as 18 inches per day! They're also important for protecting our coastlines, acting as a breakwater and reducing the impact of waves.
However, kelp forests are under threat from human activities, including pollution and overfishing. We'll explore the devastating impact of these activities on the kelp forest ecosystem, including the decline of keystone species like the California sea otter.
Finally, we'll discuss what we can do to protect these amazing underwater forests. By reducing our impact on the environment and supporting organizations that are working to protect kelp forests and the animals that live there, we can help ensure that these vital ecosystems continue to thrive for generations to come. So join us as we dive into the surprising benefits and threats of these magnificent seaweeds.

I'm here to learn more about kelp after watching this video "Impacts of Terrestrial Fires on Kelp Forests in the Ocean" I'm subscribing to your channel. I read Jacques Cousteau's books as a kid, they revealed a truly fascinating aspect of our little planet. ☮
Thank you 4Ocean for what you do in making the environment a better, cleaner place to live in!
