We empower the tiny mighty plankton

We have a problem.

We are one minute to midnight.

Humanity has destroyed natural environments, 
climate and biodiversity.

Our time to act is now.

Everything is connected.

We are going towards a vicious downward spiral.

Heating

Earth’s energy imbalance more than doubled in two decades, reaching 1.8 W/m² in 2023.¹

About 90% of the excess heat is stored in the ocean.²

The main cause of the rise is a darker planet: in 2023, planetary albedo hit a record low, mainly because of reduced low-cloud cover.³

Acidification

The ocean has absorbed about a quarter of human CO₂ emissions.⁴

Open ocean surface pH has fallen by 0.017 to 0.027 units per decade since the late 1980s.⁵

Declining marine life

Monitored marine vertebrate populations have declined by 56% on average since 1970.6

WHAT IF WE 
COULD CATALYZE THE REGENERATIVE POWER OF NATURE?

We have a solution:

We harness plankton to do what it’s best at: to capture carbon and boost oxygen.

Nature has created the perfect carbon removal mechanism, known as the biological carbon pump. 
Tiny phytoplankton converts CO2 into biomass and oxygen. This is the beginning of the food chain.

Due to humans, the carbon pump has been disrupted. 
We have a way to turn this around.

Here’s how we do it

Our goals

1

Contribute to removing the excess >2 teratons of CO2 from the atmosphere.

2

Develop phytoplankton-based carbon removal methods that biomimic the ocean’s natural carbon cycle.

3

Develop global regulation and standardization to conduct phytoplankton-based carbon dioxide removal in a safe and controlled manner.

Catalyzing photosynthesis provides multiple benefits.

When done correctly, phytoplankton-based carbon removal such as ocean iron replenishment can be one of the most scalable, impactful, and cost-efficient solutions to address climate change & biodiversity loss.

For the love of the ocean: plankton pioneers

Join us in a groundbreaking mission to heal our seas, capture carbon, and bring marine life back to full bloom — through the power of plankton.

Together, we can address the planet’s most urgent challenges.
