The Blue
Sequestration Engine.
Coastal ecosystems—mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes—are the most efficient biological machines for carbon removal on Earth. Covering less than 2% of the seabed, they bury 50% of all carbon in ocean sediments.
The Science
Understand how coastal ecosystems capture and store carbon at rates up to 10x higher than terrestrial forests through anaerobic sequestration.
The Impact
Beyond carbon: explore how blue carbon restoration supports biodiversity hotspots, coastal protection, and local economies.
The Verification
How we ensure every gram of carbon is real, additional, and permanent through dMRV satellite technology and VCS standards.
Superior
Performance by Design.
Blue carbon isn't just another nature-based solution. It is a fundamentally different sequestration mechanism that offers permanence and density unmatched by terrestrial alternatives.
10x Storage Density
While a tropical forest stores most of its carbon in wood (which can burn), mangroves store up to 95% of their carbon in deep, waterlogged soils.
The Anaerobic Shield
Saltwater excludes oxygen from the soil, preventing microbial breakdown. Carbon stored in these sediments can remain for millennia.
Ecosystem Co-Benefits
Restoring blue carbon habitats protects shorelines from storms and provides critical nurseries for 75% of commercial tropical fish species.
Soil vs. Biomass
"Blue carbon soil sequestration is effectively permanent on human timescales unless the ecosystem is physically drained or destroyed."
The 1.5°C Anchor.
We are losing these ecosystems at an alarming rate. When they are destroyed, they become "carbon bombs," releasing centuries of stored emissions in years. Restoration isn't just an option—it's the ocean's mandate.
