Regenerate the oceans, rescue the planet
We’re leveraging ocean sensing and AI to unlock the potential of marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR)
Climate Crisis
Our greatest opportunity to expand nature’s ability to absorb and sequester carbon lies within the ocean

Marine CDR (MCDR) Solutions
There are a number of emerging solutions that have massive potential to make an impact...
The Challenge
Technical hurdles in quantifying outcomes of mCDR and carbon credit procurement inefficiencies have led to underinvestment in mCDR
-
Carbon is cycled along multiple interacting pathways with varied degrees of carbon permanence
-
Ocean data are sparse, disjointed, and require a deep expertise to draw practical insights from
-
Manual project monitoring and verification is expensive and rarely translated from one project to another
-
There is variation in the availability and quality of project information and lack of key knowledge from carbon credit buyers to assess credit quality and monitor their credit portfolio
-
Credit buyers struggle to source and assess new mCDR projects that meet their climate strategy
