"It all starts with the kelp." Through mesmerizingly beautiful footage, the Seattle Aquarium takes us under the surface of the Salish Sea to discover the incredible interconnected ecosystems, called kelp highways, that provide critical habitat for numerous species (including endangered salmon, orcas and pinto abalone) and also mitigate the effects of ocean acidification by sequestering carbon. Wildlife ecologist and conservationist Chris Morgan listens to Native American biologists and the Coast Salish people who have lived alongside the kelp and protected it for thousands of years-and continue doing so today. This video is the first in a three-part series: https://salishsea.seattleaquarium.org/
