How artificial reefs can help protect seagrass meadows
The new study showed that the productivity of both undisturbed and disturbed seagrass meadows was improved by the installation of an artificial reef, even in areas with high nutrient pollution.
The Ocean Cleanup
The Ocean Cleanup, a non-profit organization, is developing and scaling technologies to rid the world’s oceans of plastic. Our aim is to put ourselves out of business once the oceans are clean.
Kelp Blue
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.
The Ocean Foundation
The Ocean Foundation’s mission is to support, strengthen, and promote those organizations dedicated to reversing the trend of destruction of ocean environments around the world. They focus their collective expertise on emerging threats in order to generate cutting edge solutions and better strategies for implementation.
