Kelp & Carbon Capture

Kelp is a proven climate change mitigator. It grows fast, capturing more carbon in the process than many land-based plants. It also removes nitrogen and phosphorus from the water which is excess caused harm to marine life. By working with local land-based farms, we are helping local food production, small businesses, and innovative climate-friendly solutions in your backyard.

We all wish we could have a few simple actions to help improve the health of our planet. With kelp, we’re in luck! Ways you can (k)elp”:
