Immersion Group is a world leader in seagrass restoration techniques
It is estimated that about 29% of the world’s seagrass meadows have been lost over the past century. In Australia, Posidonia australis is a species of seagrass valued for its role in generating blue carbon and providing marine habitat. This seagrass is known for its carbon storage capacity (in excess of terrestrial rainforests), making it an important natural resource for mitigating climate change.
In addition to its importance for blue carbon, Posidonia australis also provides essential habitat for a range of marine fish species, including commercial and recreational fish species. Immersion Group is working in Victoria and Western Australia to restore and protect Posidonia australis meadows.
