Tech Solutions Related To UN SDG 14: Life Below Water

We must fix the oceans to survive. The Oxygenator is designed to accomplish this monumental task using natural ocean upwelling and downwelling physical processes, powered entirely by ocean waves.

At Project Vesta, we want to help reverse climate change by turning a trillion tons of CO2 into rock. We will do this using the power of natural wave energy at green sand beaches. We know that reducing carbon dioxide emissions alone will not be enough to solve the climate crisis: we need to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

We help companies meet their net zero climate goals with affordable, permanent, and additive carbon credits from the world’s best ocean projects.

GreenWave replicates and scales regenerative ocean farms to create jobs and protect the planet. We train and support ocean farmers in the era of climate change, working with coastal communities around the world to create a blue economy - built and led by farmers.

Sway is on a mission to replenish the planet by supporting healthy ocean ecosystems, eliminating plastic waste, and creating a more inclusive climate movement. Sway makes home-compostable packaging derived from seaweed, a naturally abundant and regenerative resource.

Full Cycle addresses plastic pollution, food waste, and climate change by transforming organic waste into a compostable alternative to oil-based plastics. We license our technology to a variety of partners – agriculture producers, food/beverage processors, composters and landfills, biorefineries, and even large campus environments to efficiently leverage existing infrastructure and reduce costs.

The Ocean Data Network provides data collection as a service by evaluating data gaps, instrumenting fishing vessels to fill those gaps, and delivering data to a centralized network. Our data supports stakeholders from fisheries, oceanography, climate change monitoring, and their efforts to protect ecosystem productivity, biodiversity, and maritime industries and coastal recreation.

Cecil is the easiest way to manage quality nature-based projects. We empower teams developing 2000+ NBS projects across 10M+ hectares in one collaborative nature-management platform. By helping project developers and investment managers organise work, stakeholders and data in one place, Cecil is enabling the critical supply of natural climate solutions.

IUE creates customized 3D software applications with multiple layers of Geospatial Information. IUE provides tools to help people and organizations move from data warehousing, to information management, with decision support tools related to the ocean, energy and conservation industries.

Saildrone is a US business that designs, manufactures, and operates a fleet of the world’s most capable, proven, and trusted uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs). Predominantly powered by wind and solar, Saildrone USVs have a minimal carbon footprint. They are equipped with advanced sensors and machine learning technology to deliver critical data and intelligence from any ocean at any time of year.
