Rising ocean temperatures have destroyed sea life, including the critical kelp forest, as the water becomes more acidic. One group is trying to do something about it and could use help:
Scientists estimate 90% of the kelp forest off the coast of California has been lost. Kelp as well as ocean trees work to create about half the oxygen we breathe. So the less sea life we have, the less fresh air we’ll have available.
But there are organizations making sure climate change doesn’t choke us out. Michael Stewart of Sustainable Surf tells NBC Bay Area's Kari Hall why the kelp population has decreased and what the organization is doing to bring it back.
