OUR PRIORITIES

We are concerned by the pace of climate change and offer natural solutions to reduce the drastic effects caused by our warming climate, sea level rise, food insecurity and ecosystem collapse.

Our solutions envision ocean biomass regeneration, planetary cooling and climate restoration.

Our approach focuses on the principles of biomimicry or learning from the ‘research’ that nature has been undertaking for millions of years.

THE PREDICAMENT

Pre-industrially, the oceans played a vital role in carbon capture and climate change cycles, regulating the earth’s temperature over billions of years. In the last 300 years, many parts of the oceans have become lifeless with fish stocks dangerously depleted. 95% of large mammals in the ocean have disappeared. Climate Arks will help humanity to restore the ocean’s biomass and leverage the natural power of the earth’s temperature regulating mechanisms. By replenishing and protecting sea life to its pre-industrial abundance we help recalibrate the oceans to their natural global force; to better regulate global climate: temperature, weather, food stocks, carbon storage, and the oxygen we breathe.

OUR SOLUTIONS

Imagine there is a way to both rewild the oceans and rebalance the climate at the same time.
The oceans hold the key to much of life on this planet thanks to three vital components –
phytoplankton, upwelling and carbon drawdown.
Phytoplankton is the foundation of the food web that supports all life in the ocean. Vast areas of
the open oceans are marine ‘deserts’ and are deficient in the vital nutrients that stimulate the
growth of healthy algal blooms. 2% of the world’s coasts produce 20% of all fishing due to
upwelling of deep nutrients along continental shelves. Enormous abundance of sealife could be
activated if upwelling could be induced in the world’s ocean ‘deserts’. If more nutrient rich water
could be upwelled, it would boost both ocean productivity and carbon drawdown.
The same benefits of natural coastal upwelling can be achieved by a simple conduit device that can
be towed behind any of the ~50,000 vessels that traverse the world’s oceans. This ocean upwelling
device can be mechanically deployed and retracted by a trained deckhand. It uses elegant
pneumatic external tubes to give it buoyancy and rigidity and it has no electronic components
except a remotely controlled release valve to facilitate deflation on retraction.
At scale, this innovation could have a deep impact on the global climate.

OUR TEAM

MEET OUR MEMBERS WHO ARE SOLVING DIFFERENT TYPES OF CLIMATE ISSUES AROUND THE WORLD

CLIVE ELSWORTH

In 2014 Clive co-founded Citizens Climate Lobby UK. Today he convenes and chairs meetings of international scientists and volunteers called NOAC – Nature Based Ocean and Atmospheric Cooling. He is co-authoring a paper with Franz Oeste on natural carbon transport mechanisms.

FRANZ OESTE

Franz Oeste, developer and co-patent-holder of the iron salt aerosol (ISA) method of depleting CO2, methane and other short-lived greenhouse gases; he is the lead author of the primary peer-reviewed article on ISA, and also lead author on a new major paper on natural carbon transport mechanisms that Sir David King is calling a “landmark” paper and is interested in sponsoring for publication by the Royal Society.

JOHN MACDONALD

John has a architectural background designing many award winning scientific and innovative green buildings. He brings his skills in design, project management and environmental consciousness to our Climate Arks team.

DERMOTT REILLY

Having created and managed a food packaging and distribution business for 16 years, Dermott became increasingly frustrated by wastage and inefficiency in the food supply chain. For over two decades, he has focused on commercial nanobiotechnology solutions that reduce the use of toxic chemicals and processes, whilst leveraging the intrinsic value of natural ingredients
