Big Help is coming
ORIGINS
Over 650 million years ago
Algae made complex life possible on earth.
Algae could save the Earth again.
Climate Change, Ocean Health, Plastic Waste, Pollution
can all be addressed using Algae, particularly Seaweed or
Kelp
CO2
Giant Kelp
The fastest growing seaweed absorbs CO2 faster and cheaper than anything else known to man.
It absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere 20x faster than trees, and it won't burn down.
We will grow it at scale coastally and in the
Open ocean.
METHANE
Red Kelp
We will cultivate a revolutionary Red Kelp supplement
for ruminant livestock, particularly cows, it eliminates
98% of Methane Emissions.
Livestock Methane accounts for
16% of Global Warming.
OCEAN HEALTH
Giant Kelp
Farmed Coastally, or in Open Ocean, fringing Fish Farms, or even decomissioned Oil Rigs.
Providing teeming new Ocean Biomes for
Fish and Shellfish to breed, while cooling the water and de-acidifying it.
At scale this will hugely increase fish stocks and the health of our oceans.
PLASTICS
Kelp
Is already used to make many biodegradable plastic replacements in
Clothes, Shoes, Packaging, and Containers.
We want to provide the raw materials for this at a
price-point which makes Oil-based plastics unattractive.
As unattractive as a Patch of Garbage in the Pacific -
The Size of Texas.
POLLUTION
Kelp
Can Help Replace:
Petroleum Based Fertilizers which ravage our waterways.
Livestock Feed - half of all crops grown globally. 4% of the world's land mass.
Synthetic Clothes - are 60% of the world's clothing.
These Clothes don't biodegrade and when washed release micro-plastics in to the water system,
in to our food, our bodies, our organs.
11% of permanent plastic waste is from clothing.
