A bit more about why Seaweed and Climate change:

Climate change: there’s no ignoring it. Today’s youth will live in a world where droughts, heat waves, and hurricanes become more extreme; rising sea levels displacing communities will be the norm. Solutions to reverse climate change exist, but we all need to take action and embrace them.

That’s why we’re working with The Intrepid Foundation to remove additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

As the search for solutions continues, one unlikely hero is making waves: seaweed. Together with The Climate Foundation and the University of Tasmania, The Intrepid Foundation is supporting an innovative marine permaculture initiative aimed at regenerating kelp forests. The project will set up Australia’s first seaweed platform – one of the key solutions to climate change featured in 2040 – off Tasmania’s eastern coast. The seaweed platform will be home to floating kelp forests, which will continue to grow, attract and feed fish, and provide the same sustainable harvest and ecosystem functions as natural kelp forests.

We’re aiming to raise $50,000 AUD for the seaweed solution to help reverse global warming. Every donation made will be matched dollar for dollar by The Intrepid Foundation. This means if we hit out target we can raise $100,000!!! Hold onto your hats!!
