Applying Research to Help Create Solutions
The ocean can also play an essential role in mitigating climate change. For example, human interventions may help enhance the ocean's natural capability to take CO2 from the atmosphere.
NOC are leading the way in studying whether we can safely use the ocean and marine spaces to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
NOC's Climate Mission
Studying the ocean helps us understand what’s happening to our climate, where tipping points may be reached, and how the impacts will unfold across the globe—from rising sea levels to shifting weather extremes.
