With your support - we work with SeaForester to restore the kelp forests in Cascais, Portugal. We have made an early stage investment in the development of the green gravel technique for doing kelp forest restoration off the shallow coast of Cascais, Portugal. This kelp forest restoration project begins with the deployment of 25,000 stones over 27,000 sq-ft of kelp forest
What are stones? Green gravel stones refer to a unique technique employed in the restoration of kelp forests. This technique involves the seeding of small stones with seaweed spores, nurturing them on land in specialized nurseries, and deploying them in the sea. The process, supported by your donation, includes the growth of seaweed on these stones, which are then deployed (scattered) from a boat without the need for divers or technical equipment. This scalable and cost-effective seaforestation solution is aimed at rejuvenating the kelp forests.
