About us

Blue carbon is committed to providing environmental security for future generations by addressing both climate and biodiversity crises. The climate crisis is devastating, with natural disasters occurring at unprecedented levels, displacing millions. Life on earth is declining at a dangerous rate, and millions of species are nearing extinction. We must hit net zero carbon emissions by 2030 to protect 30% of land and oceans. Our ocean holds 50x more carbon than the atmosphere and 20x more carbon than plants and soil. Blue Carbon is at the forefront of shaping a sustainable future amidst the environmental crisis with a tech solution that unlocks the power of the ocean to secure our planet’s future. oPod pumps nutrient-rich, deep sea water to the ocean's surface - locking away Co2 and rejuvenating essential marine life food sources. Our Ocean Garden delivers sustainable aquaculture, using coastal currents to transport nutrients to neighboring kelp and oyster gardens. Initial estimates indicate one Ocean Garden could remove over 3000 tonnes of Co2 annually. Reach out to explore how together, we can forge a sustainable future for our planet.

• Ocean upwelling, nature’s ‘nutrient elevator’ is one of the pillars of life in the sea, and on earth, yet it’s a largely unknown concept. Here’s an introduction to upwelling: what it is, how it works, what it does - and why it matters. Ocean upwelling occurs when winds blow parallel to coastlines, pushing surface water away. This creates a vacuum effect, drawing deeper, colder water upwards to replace it. While cold water typically sinks, this wind-driven process overcomes gravity, bringing nutrient-rich waters to the surface. Here’s why this matters: • Fisheries powerhouse: Upwelling zones, covering just 1% of the ocean, provide 50% of the world’s fish catch, supporting global food security and coastal economies. • Climate regulation: Phytoplankton is the original carbon capture tech - its growth changed the orange methane skies of early earth blue with oxygen. By fuelling phytoplankton with deep water nutrients, upwelling aids carbon sequestration, playing a crucial role in mitigating climate change. • Biodiversity hotspots: upwelling nutrient-rich water from the depths supports diverse marine life, from plankton to whales, preserving biodiversity crucial for ecosystem stability. • Coastal climate influence: When cold water hits warm air, it cools it: like splashing cold water on your face. One effect of cold water plus warm air is fog. In areas like San Francisco, upwelling-induced fog helps regulate temperatures, reducing energy needs for cooling. Ocean upwelling is vital for marine life, human food security, and climate resilience. At Blue Carbon, we’re looking to connect to this ocean superpower.#OceanScience #FoodSecurity #ClimateAction #BlueCarbonLearn More about the Dark Water Elevator: Ocean Upwelling 👇

  🌊 Blue Carbon at the Hong Kong Innovation and Tech Show 2024, Brisbane Oct 10-11 🌍 Introducing Blue Carbon’s tech to the business world of Hong Kong is something you don’t do lightly. The gateway to China knows the importance of tackling climate change with innovation, at scale. CEO Dr Ana Novak and CFO Eva Chiu, were joined by team leaders Felicity White (Commercialisation Manager) and Dion Coghlan (General Manager). We were surprised by the magnitude and passion of the feedback to our oPods. Not just from potential customers, but partners. Business people interested not just in joining the future, but creating it. Eva was asked to give the opening speech, where she highlighted the focus and commitment shared by Hong Kong and Australia in tackling climate change urgently - and how Blue Carbon's oPod can help. Thank you Hong Kong Australia Business Association Queensland Chapter and Kenny Ma for their outstanding support. We feel privileged to be a small part of such a successful event!🌱#BlueCarbon #Innovation #ClimateAction #Sustainability #BlueEconomy

• It was a pleasure meeting Prof. Felix Chung, Founder & CEO of the Hong Kong Carbon Trading Centre (HKCTC). We had an engaging exchange of views on the global carbon market and an in-depth discussion about collaborations in the near future. Prof. Chung's extensive experience in the textile and garment industry, his impactful political career as a Legislative Councillor in the HKSAR from 2012 to 2021, and his commitment to reducing carbon emissions through HKCTC align perfectly with our mission at Blue Carbon. We are dedicated to harnessing innovative technology for carbon removal and sustainable ocean management, and it's truly inspiring to connect with leaders who share our vision for a sustainable future. We are excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to working together to drive meaningful climate action.
