OVER 35% OF OUR
Since 1980, we’ve lost over 35% of our seagrass meadows. That equates to about 1.5% per year, or 2 football fields each hour. This rate of loss is equal to that of coral reefs and rainforests, yet seagrass receives no attention and we are here to change that!
Project Seagrass is committed to the conservation of seagrass ecosystems and ensuring that the benefits they provide communities are sustained now and for the future.
Through community, research and action, we can save seagrass!

What’s at Stake
INDICATOR HABITAT
Seagrasses are indicator species for environmental issues. Because they respond rapidly to environmental change, they provide insights into overfishing and destructive fishing practices, pollution and water quality, and much more.
Learn about these iconic habitats, the threats they face, and how you can help us to protect them.
Our work
Read about the important work that we do, from research into poverty alleviation, small-scale fisheries and ecosystem health to our education campaigns and direct action programmes like Seagrass Ocean Rescue.
