Saltmarshes are among the most effective carbon sinks on the planet, capable of storing carbon up to 40 times faster than temperate forests. They play a crucial role in helping combat climate change, while also supporting biodiversity, protecting coastlines from erosion, and improving water quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lightweight FSC chart is ideal for use in the field and folds down to a convenient size, making it easy to carry during surveys or walks along the reserve. Like all our wildlife identification guides, it is fully laminated, meaning it is shower‑proof, durable, and wipe‑clean — perfectly suited to outdoor use in changing coastal conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FSC Charts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55662528004481,"sku":"3070019","price":4.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0440\/7246\/8636\/files\/Steart-Saltmarshplants.jpg?v=1778599531","url":"https:\/\/shop.wwt.org.uk\/products\/saltmarsh-plants-of-wwt-steart-marshes-and-bridgwater-bay","provider":"WWT Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
