Re-Wilding
The Oceans
We plant kelp forests around the globe to boost the health of the oceans and lock away CO2 forever.
We harvest the kelp canopy for sustainable agri-foods, fertiliser, pharmaceuticals, and textiles.
Every year, humanity is using natural resources faster than our planet can renew them.
Join us on our mission to enable sustainable industries, revitalise the health of the oceans, and leave the planet behind in a better place. And this requires:
NO
LAND USE
NO
FRESH WATER USE
NO
pesticides or fertilisers
Why
Kelp
It is one of the fastest growing organisms on earth.
It creates habitats for many marine species.
It’s an amazingly efficient carbon sink.
It can be sustainably and repeatedly harvested for at least 7 years.
It provides valuable extracts including hydrocolloids, polyphenols, phlorotannins, mannitol, fucoidans, & other bio-active compounds.
Positive
Impact
Environmental:
Sizeable CO2 drawdown and sequestration
Enhanced ocean biodiversity
Replenishment of fish stocks
Social:
Job creation in coastal communities
Increased ocean awareness
Inspiring, replicable nature-based solution
Achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals with substantial numbers
These goals are at the core of our operations and provides the framework within which we promote prosperity and protect the environment.
Creation of stable, skilled direct and indirect jobs in countries needing capacity growth
No waste
No chemicals
No fertilizer or pesticides
Net benefit to the environment
Our Kelp farms will sequester and offset 0.2-0.5 Gigatons of CO2 per year (2050 vision). That’s more Co2 than the Netherlands emits per year.
Increase in localised marine biodiversity & ecosystem resilience; Reduction in ocean acidity & Major boost to regional, economically important fish stocks
