Sea grass is a huge carbon sink, more than tropical rain forests. It is a declining ecosystem, but one with huge potential. A Spanish chef has discovered that a type of sea grass has edible seeds, requires no freshwater and no fertilizer and has 50% more protein than rice and helps restore ecosystems. The Seri of Mexico also eat sea grass grain, but it's not a commonly used food item and hasn't been intentionally cultivated before.
