What is the primary objective of the UK-based Project SeaCURE?
Reducing plastic pollution in oceans
Developing marine biodiversity reserves
Cleaning oil spills from seawater
Enhancing Ocean’s Carbon Absorption
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Project SeaCURE is a UK pilot initiative focused on combating climate change by improving the ocean’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide. The project works by extracting CO₂ directly from seawater through a chemical process that acidifies the water, causing the CO₂ to be released and captured before it can re-enter the atmosphere. This innovative technique leverages the ocean’s natural carbon sink capacity and aims to offer a scalable, cost-effective method to reduce atmospheric CO₂ levels. If successful, it could become a vital tool in the global effort to mitigate climate change.
