When Cocco talks, climate walks.
#InvisibleHeroes #OceanGuardians #ClimateWarriors #InternationalCoccoDay
These microscopic workers keep our oceans thriving and our climate stable. They've earned their day.
Join the initiative by sharing this post and using #CoccolithophoreDay. Help us get recognition for the organisms that have been shaping Earth's climate since long before humans existed.
Why do they deserve recognition?
They capture CO2 and build ocean ecosystems. They're sensitive to climate change and when they falter, it's an early warning for our planet. Almost no one knows them, yet their impact is global.
Now we are making things right. @Ruđer Bošković Institute @marescience.bsky.social @heriotwattuni.bsky.social International Nannoplankton Association Norce are jointly proposing to make October 10 International Coccolithophore Day!

For a week, we've been dropping hints. Today, you meet coccolithophores.
They've been working without recognition for millions of years, building calcium plate shells, producing oxygen, capturing atmospheric carbon. Their blooms are visible from space, yet most people have never heard of them.
In a world visible only under a microscope, a story unfolds that's changing our planet.
Like grains of sand that build beaches, these microscopic organisms are constructing something far greater.
Follow us and reveal the secret heroes.

New year, new beginnings:
✅join Bluesky
✅do something important
✅write the first post about it
This year started with a great workshop in Rome in January. February is reserved for internal trainings in Zagreb and Rijeka. And the exciting month of March is just around the corner.

🌊 Why is the Adriatic turning yellow every spring? Not pollution — it’s pollen. And thanks to scientists @institutrb.bsky.social + partners, we’re finding out how it affects marine life.
