LIFE SEPOSSO's documentary takes stock of 20 years of transplants of Posidonia oceanica.
As it happens for damaged forests on land, also in the sea it is possible to make transplants, in order to restore the Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows that are suffering or that have been damaged.
The European project LIFE SEPOSSO (lifeseposso.eu), coordinated by ISPRA, has carried out for the first time in Italy and in the Mediterranean Sea a national monitoring of the transplants of Posidonia oceanica carried out in the last 20 years.
The documentary "Posidonia oceanica, let's look after it" describes the main results of the project: the information collected from the monitoring of 15 case studies for a total of 30,000 squared meters of transplanted meadows; the results of the governance analysis carried out thanks to the many actors involved; the strengths and pitfalls of the procedures adopted in the past; the technical solutions, good practices and innovative tools developed to improve transplants and thus restore and protect this precious habitat more effectively and efficiently than in the past.
Posidonia oceanica meadows are a common heritage to guarantee the health of the sea and of mankind.
It is necessary for each of us to look after it.
