Description

They have existed for thousands of years, yet there are extraordinary animals in the water with the ability to change the planet's atmosphere. All life in the water and maybe even on land relies on these small organisms called phytoplanktons.

They absorb around 11 gigatons of carbon dioxide from our atmosphere annually, which is more than all of the world's forests and other plants put together.

Scientists are always researching to learn more about this microorganism's potential and how they might best transform our globe.

This book is about the tiny plant life known as phytoplankton, which lives in the open waters of lakes, ponds, and rivers.

It discusses the most current findings on phytoplanktons and how they could impact our ecology and marine life.
