Kelp Blue

We grow giant kelp forests around the globe to boost the health of the oceans and to store CO2. We harvest only the kelp canopy. From this, we make biostimulants, a product that allows farmers to drastically reduce the use of synthetic fertilizers. Biostimulants increase plants' ability to tolerate climatic stress and yields. What’s the problem? Per year, humanity is using natural capital 1.7 times as fast as Earth can renew it. For our future's sake, this must change. Cost-effective, long-term, and environmentally sustainable alternatives must be found to restore the planet to equilibrium, or even abundance. Why is Kelp Blue an answer? Giant kelp is one of the fastest-growing organisms on the planet and is well suited for use in a range of products from high-quality pharmaceuticals/neutraceuticals to fertilizer, animal feed, dietary supplements, and textiles. Growing the marketplace for existing kelp products, as well as using giant kelp derivatives to displace environmentally damaging alternatives, will help restore the planet's equilibrium; growing kelp requires no fertilizers, no pesticides, no land, and no fresh water. But more importantly, it has the ability to draw down more CO2 than terrestrial forests while boosting marine biodiversity and improving fish stocks. Why Kelp Blue? We are passionate about scaling a profitable nature-based solution that will help reverse climate change. Our model can quickly grow across different markets, helping to change the course of multiple industries from being environmentally damaging to being environmentally positive.
