🔎 ABOUT THIS PROJECT
===============================
Underwater forests are an immensely important ecosystem: they support biodiversity, improve water quality and sequester carbon. Despite their significance for marine life and the fight against climate change, the loss of kelp forests from coastlines worldwide has captured much less of the spotlight on deforestation. This is why since 2020, we have been working with SeaForester to restore kelp forests in Portugal where large areas of kelp have disappeared. We are building a kelp nursery to produce and deploy kelp that tests a new method called ‘green gravel’ with the potential for large-scale marine reforestation.

Can you make a planting coral video? People are trying to remake coral reefs in Seychelles, Hawaii, and many more! Coral reefs are very important and are being killed by climate change and humans indirectly affecting the reefs.

@hunterhq295 Год назад

Any recent updates? Wildfires happening and the Amazon summit hope Mossy Earth can help take part to help, also to give support to local people

@EmpressOfExile206 11 месяцев назад

Do the kelp have to hit a minimum size before they start reproducing or will the tiny ones start releasing spores their 1st spring? Regardless, I think the "green gravel" method would maximize the returns if you artificially raised the kelp to a point where they are mature enough that you can drop them just before their 1st spawn. That way even if most of the dropped kelp doesn't thrive for whatever reason, they'll at least have a chance to dump their spores within a month or two of being dropped. That way it's like a "double drop"! Drop 1 with the "green gravel" and drop 2 of spores from the kelp! You also get an 'added benefit' since each kelp drops _multiple_ spores. This means you could possible end up with 3x the amount of kelp you dropped or more‼️ 🤝💯

Publishing failure is important. It tells everyone else what not to do, unless they have a new twist on the idea. Succeed or fail, it's ALWAYS good data.

@Matty002 11 месяцев назад

there should be a free to access catalogue of all techniques and their success rates for everything that anyone can submit to a review, similar to wikipedia. for example searching for this could be: artificial + kelp + reproduction + natural habitat = spore bag technique [low % success rate] vs + simulated habitat = green gravel technique [high % success rate]. also dealing with the stigma of publishing 'failure' in academia is a thing

Everything was white and flat and quiet and empty. It really broke my heart to see fish and seals and turtles and octopi lobster and eels and sea lions and so many amazing creatures gone like they'd never been there. It made me sadder that so many people would see it and not even know what they were missing. Videos like this give me hope that it's not all just a downhill slide into the abyss, and that even as things get bad, there are people in the world working to not only stop it, but reverse it.

I have seen a project fail in Berlin where they were re-planting reeds and grasses in large ponds, and it was impossible to protect them from being eaten. Even metal cages couldn't keep out the ducks and swans. Have you thought about large cages or areas with chicken wire to protect the kelp grow into maturity?

Awesome news. This is one of my favourite projects of Mossy earth. You guys rock!. Literally, in this case.😁

If we care about the survival and prosperity of our loved ones in a thriving world, these things should be a fundamental pillar of our societies. In the same way that we respect and take for granted institutions like education, medical, law enforcement and courts, I hope to see the day that stewardship of the environment takes equal economic and social prominence. Your work is wonderful and inspiring. Thank you for what you do, and I hope you keep expanding. I wonder if, in my lifetime, I will see a Mossy-Earth-style industry pop up in my area. I would absolutely jump at the chance.
