Salt water borne blue green algae uses and sequesters more CO2 than any other single ecosystem, by a factor of hundreds.
If sea levels were to rise, this would INCREASE the amount of CO2 needed, making a closed system with internal balances.

It’s almost as if some unknown power built a system that renews itself! Who could have guessed that??

Technically incorrect. CO2 is not being sequestered. CO2 is being metabolized by plant photosynthesis and the carbon is used to make glucose, which makes starches and cellulose and many other hydrocarbons. The oxygen is released back into the atmosphere.
