Faroe Islands farmers use seaweed as an underwater solution to combat climate change | Nightline

Sugar Kelp (Laminaria saccharina) as shown being harvested in this video used to be dried and as it dries the sugar comes to the surface of the kelp, it was then cut into small mouth size pieces and used as what we would call today a sugar substitute but going back in time there was no sweets/candy so Sugar kelp was used instead.

I wonder why we don't make bags out of it

[@rudai123]

Interesting.

[@glennmartin6492]

Can I just clarify that seaweed absorbs CO2 from the sea and it's the sea that then absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere?

[@notinmyname792]

It's great. It would be better if they could just stop the annual dolphin killing party too.

[@spencerserin8489]

Love to see any work that supports brown seaweeds reducing methane 80% at 3-5% inclusion... that doesn't look like asparagopsis to me

[@nightstorm9872]

Climate change is another way to say mass pollution by major companies so now countries need to adapt around this to survive.

[@johnwattdotca]

The entire west coast of the United States and Canada was one long kelp bed populated by millions of otters.

****

[@mrxxbrian]

How about if the people of Faroe Islands didn't brutally massacre hundreds of dolphins every year as a sport? That's a start.

[@panterafanloco1600]

How about you westerners stop scapegoat and be hypocrite and look at the bigger picture that fishing industries is killing ocean ecosystems.

[@FoOtFoOt542]

That girl sounds like Angie Harmon

[@lovemikijackson]

WOWW

[@wuhanbiruSux]

how do you give seaweed to grass pasture fed cattle? 🤔

[@murrrriel]

I think you just mix the fermented seaweed in with grain or alphalfa.

[@wuhanbiruSux]

@@murrrriel well you can do that when barn-fed and lot-fattening. in the spring after the roundup and steering, lease cattle roam our "ranch"... helps with wild fire. cattle won't eat grain if green pasture is available. can you spray a seaweed solution on the grass

[@kathrynwhite8482]

They also kill whales.

[@johnking8597]

I love 💕 Climate Change.

[@makeracistsafraidagain]

I expect we'll go extinct. But I wouldn't mind being wrong.

[@caseynoface9439]

Like every last civilization that came before us

[@WorldwideScents]

[@pondwalden8291]

[@cindybryant1236]

Where do you say engross were I bet you're watching me right now aren't you and I'm on the toilet I guarantee you're watching me right now you know why because I want surveillance illegally but not for long baby

[@DakinRinone]

The dislike button is officially gone... this will be a dark time for KZbin. I guarantee they are going to regret making this stupid decision. People are gonna be tricked even more now 🙄. And hopefully this will help somewhat if we make a effort with the seaweed.

[@cindybryant1236]

Thanks for that comment

[@I_like_Plants130]

I still see it but to be fair I don't have a apple so mine might update and go away a little later

[@lixiastone8503]

Folks, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins. He was buried and resurrected on the third day. Believe in Him to be saved.

[@miam1074]

Derailed

[@KevinSamuelsPowerBottom]

If they already died for our sins, then the price has been paid and we've already been "saved" Although clearly, we haven't. We're too old to be banking on imaginary figures. I mean, nothing happens without his father's approval, it's said so this is exactly what's wanted for us. If we want to be saved, we'll have to do it ourselves.

[@glennmartin6492]

And he's entirely composed of kelp!
