- They are an ancient species of flowering plants that grow submerged in all of the world’s oceans. Seagrasses link offshore coral reefs with coastal mangrove forests. Today, these “prairies of the sea,” along with mangroves, are on the decline globally. Scientists fear the diminishing vegetation could result in an ecosystem collapse from the bottom of the food chain all the way to the top. Changing Seas joins experts in the field as they work to restore Florida’s important mangroves and seagrasses.
Known as “hotspots of biodiversity,” seagrasses and mangroves attract and support a variety of marine life. However, worldwide damage and removal of these plants continue at a rapid pace. Changing Seas travels along Florida’s coastline to get a better understanding of the significant roles mangroves and seagrasses play within the state. Can biologists prevent a negative ripple-effect throughout the marine food web before it’s too late? How will rising sea levels impact these plants as well at the communities that depend on them?

I have always had a lot of respects for those people who invest their time, money and energy, at the level they can, to restore and preserve the natural environment. These are the kind of souls worthy of the sweet richness of the planet, the ones who should procreate the same caring and loving generation for the continuation of life on the planet.
the most underappreciated ecosystem ever
Awesome!
For a second I thought I was watching an episode of Forensic Files - the late Peter Thomas's voice is unmistakeable! Nice programme. :)
I thought it was the first 48
Came for Peter Thomas’ voice ❤️
Loving nature is also loving our selves, nature in land and water... Loving is on HOW WE RESPECT IT
seagrass is awesome🥰🥰
Its good to know that the florida people concern in their sea keep it up im salute in you
The coastal seas environment is deterioting day by day due to coastal pollution and growing population with lot of pressures.
Thank you so much
Man have been tying to regulate the seas and nature, the seas and nature have
been regulating themselves for millions of years
Super Programing!
Mangroves coastal coral reefs how breathtaking
Excellent Piece of information.. We are doing an video over ecology introduction..
Can u provide a link?
May grandfather invest most of his life planting this and was called bakawan in the Philippines in the 80's to help from storms and large waves
OMG THE NARRATOR SOUNDS LIKE THE ONE FROM FORENSIC FILES , NICE VIDEO!
A breakthrough in grass analysis discovered that the grass in her lungs, was actually from the sea. Detectives knew then, that his alibi didn't add up.......
thats because it is lol he's awesome
It is
He is the same narrator
The Everglades Nature Preserve projects are great. Scientist should expand restoration projects like this one Worldwide. East & West coast Mexico coastlines of Africa, Spain, Indian Ocean, and more. Improving the environment in one area, and another, and another, is good for the whole planet.
They just divested the America Everglades restoration projects in Feb 2024 😥 It was the State 404 Program. floridadep.gov/water/submerged-lands-environmental-resources-coordination/content/state-404-program
Florida submitted an appeal but doubt it'll be approved.
I hope that we have mass planting of sea grass here in the Philippines😣❤
dudeeeeee i flashed back to my childhood when this came on lmfao i didnt learn what not to do when hiding a body reading
Sea Grass must for eco friendly nature but it will s also good for used cultivation also must
Coral is helper beneficiary
Oh this voice makes me think somebody’s about to go missing any second- like he’s leading us through the crime scene
Who else, after hearing Peter Thomas narrating was expecting this nature documentary to turn into a murder investigation?
🙏🙏🙏
Were any of the projects in this video affected by the divesting of the State 404 Program in February 2024?
I would loved to know Why, after being banned from harvest since the 1970’s, the Queen Conch has not rebounded in Florida???
Thank you !!
if a population is too low, there are just not enough to find each other to mate. There are other thresholds that need to be reached too.

the buttom line of human survival is our healthy environment. reflects our view of how to be humans not mutants. maybe severe huricane impact will be save by healthy sea forrest.
were you there, did you see that?
Try to anchor your yacht here in the sea grass fields in the baleares Spain, and you loose it to the state authority
😂😂😂

I cut my hand while doing this for a experiment
6 tears later have they made anything change ?
dang i have tu do this for a project
same
Any aquatic science students here!!!
ayo
Hello
right here!
Hello. Me and my colleagues are doing a research for the Philippine National Museum of Natural History. We are gathering materials to be incorporated to the video presentation material we are producing for museum visitors. We would like to seek permission if we could use some part of this video please? This will be use solely for educational and museum use only. You will be given a credit for the contribution you will share. Thank you.
I am sorry we did not respond to this message sooner, if you are still interested please contact us at changingseas@wpbt2.org
Aya Lakwatsera ..good day maam, Filipino here as well... i would just like to ask if the research you are conducting are related to rising sea levels, and flooding in the Philippines. thansk
Ah Peter Thomas was great.
I expect him to start deceiving the murder scene tho
Is it just me or is he the same narrator of the show Forensic Files / Medical Detectives? 😧

most of this is due to the greed of overfishing yal got commercial fisheries taking out all the fish which gives nutrients to the same sea grass. greed is the cause to the ocean being the way it is
