One Million New Plankton Species Found: ‘A worldwide expedition of the oceans to find out about climate change reveals a million new species of plankton’
'These planktonic organisms are the life support system of the planet.' -- 'They are the base of the food chain ... if there's no plankton, there's no fish in the oceans...And they take CO2 out of the atmosphere by taking it into the interior of the ocean where it can be stored for thousands of millions of years so they're an essential buffer against climate change due to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere'
