Whales are one of the key players in making sure that the ocean’s biological carbon pump is working efficiently. Yes, they are like the heart of the ocean.⁠
⁠
Basically, the carbon pump is the ocean’s way of removing the dissolved atmospheric carbon in its surface levels and sequestering them to the ocean floor.⁠
⁠
Marine organisms, by virtue of being carbon-based lifeforms, capture part of the dissolved carbon in their bodies. The bigger the creature, the more carbon it can hold.⁠
⁠
Whales, being one of the largest creatures in the ocean, are efficient carbon sequestrators. Like every living creature in the ocean, they absorb carbon over the course of their lifetime. And because they live long, they get to sequester a lot of carbon.⁠
⁠
In fact, scientists have determined that by the time the whale reaches old age, it would have contained 33 tons of carbon on average. That’s a hefty amount of carbon that goes down to the ocean floor when the whale dies and sinks into the sediments on the bottom.⁠
⁠
Now just imagine if the whale populations recovered to their historic abundance. They could potentially sequester 1.7 billion tons of CO2 each year. Roughly speaking, that’s more than Japan emits in a year.⁠
