SUMMARY:The Ocean Carbon Sink: Facts\, Fictions\, and Opportunities with Dr
 . Marina Lévy
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\nCan whales help mitigate human-induced climate
  change? What about mangroves\, kelp forests\, or the trillions of microsc
 opic organisms drifting through the ocean and capturing carbon through pho
 tosynthesis?\nThe ocean absorbs about a quarter of the CO₂ we emit\, so 
 it seems natural to imagine that ocean life is doing the work much as fore
 sts do on land. But the real story is more complex.\nThe New England Aquar
 ium’s Lowell Lecture Series and the Lorenz Center of the Department of E
 arth\, Atmospheric\, and Planetary Sciences at MIT present the John H. Car
 lson Lecture\, featuring oceanographer Marina Lévy on an exploration of t
 he ocean’s extraordinary carbon machine. From forests on land to underwa
 ter forests\, from microscopic phytoplankton to the web of marine life and
  the global ocean circulation\, we will follow carbon through the ocean to
  discover what actually makes it one of the planet’s great carbon sinks 
 and why that matters as the ocean warms and its circulation changes. And i
 f we understand how this remarkable machine works\, could we help it absor
 b even more CO₂? We will explore some of the emerging ideas for using th
 e ocean to remove carbon from the atmosphere\, along with their promises\,
  limitations\, and unanswered questions.\n\n&nbsp\;
