By 2050, to stay under a *** degrees Celsius change relative to pre-industrial levels, emission reductions of about gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year are needed from ocean-based solutions. This amounts to nearly ** percent of the needed annual greenhouse gas emissions reductions by 2050.
