The species Pelagophycus porra, also known as elk kelp, grows in temperatures of no higher than 60 °F (16 °C). It grows in subtidal forests in the coastal waters off southern California and northwestern Baja California Peninsula , in waters of 20 metres (66 ft) to 90 metres (300 ft) deep, anchored by a holdfast in sedimentary or loose ...
An alternative offset would be to cultivate kelp forests. Kelp can grow at 2 feet per day, 30 times faster than terrestrial plants. Planting kelp across 10% of the oceans (4.5 x the area of Australia) could provide the same offset. Additionally, the kelp would support a fish harvest of 2 megatons per year and reduce ocean acidification. Large ...
