Microbial Worlds, One Connected System

Marine microbes influence climate, drive oxygen production, and support all ocean life.
➡ Affect rainfall and soil nutrients on land

Soil microbes recycle nutrients, supporting plant growth and biodiversity.
➡ Feed into plant microbiomes, affecting food webs

Plant-associated microbes enhance resilience, nutrition, and human food quality.
➡ Impact gut health and immune systems in humans

The human microbiome links to immunity, mood, and health. Our actions alter soil and ocean microbiomes.
➡ Pollution and farming practices feed back to soil and ocean health
