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.
Why kelp
The beauty of kelp is that it requires:
Our Locations
Namibia
Namibia’s cold Benguela Currents off the coast of Luderitz are rich in nutrients and present the perfect conditions for growing macrocystis.
New Zealand
The Akaroa Bay test farm will help us develop best in class cultivation techniques and discover the benefits of macrocystis on the environment.
Alaska
Alaska’s clear cold waters are perfect for cultivating giant kelp and the state is poised to take a leadership position in mariculture.
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
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
