An underwater scene with a dark blue ocean background, featuring digitally drawn neon-like outlines of marine life, including seahorses, fish, coral, and a sea turtle. Green seagrass is illustrated growing on the ocean floor. White bold text in the center reads: “LET’S RESTORE SEAGRASS BEDS.” Below, smaller white text says: “Join #GenerationRestoration.” Logos for the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, UN Environment Programme, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations are displayed at the bottom.

Seagrass covers just 0.1% of the ocean floor but stores up to 18% of oceanic carbon, prevents erosion & supports food security.
