Running Tide

We're excited to be counted among the Top 100 #xprizecarbonremoval teams. Congratulations to all contenders!

At Running Tide, every day is Earth Day. Today, as the world celebrates the beauty and wonder of our planet, we're reminded of the urgent need to heal and protect it for future generations. We are committed to making a positive impact on the oceans and our planet. With our ocean-based carbon removal projects, we're teaming up with nature to create a better world. Together, let's continue to work towards a more abundant future.

Making waves in ocean-based carbon removal 🌊 Running Tide's nature-based solutions sequester and store carbon in the deep ocean While naturally fighting ocean acidification 💦 With regenerative aquaculture to restore coastal ecosystems 🪸 As the Founder and CEO Marty O. leverages nature's most powerful carbon removal system — the ocean to move the needle on shifting billions of tonnes of carbon back to the slow carbon cycle every year. And to do it, he's partnering with some of the leaders of the carbon removal market: NorSea, Nordkalk Corporation, University of Cambridge, Patch, Stripe, Shopify, Ocean Frontier Institute, Ocean Networks Canada, Microsoft, Eimskip, Ocean Visions Hear first hand from Marty at the HackSummit on how he's locking up CO2 on the seafloor and what's in store for the trailblazing startup in the months ahead.

I moderated an important session on “How to take action against ocean pollution from wastewater and sewage” at Economist Impact's recent World Ocean Summit in Lisbon. More than 80% of the world’s wastewater is released into the environment without treatment, harming people and aquatic habitats. At the same time, more than 40% of the global population lacks access to safely managed sanitation services. In addition to being a serious public health issue, pollution from sewage and wastewater affects many industries that rely on the ocean, including tourism, fishing and offshore aquaculture, while contributing to coral damage and nature loss. This session discussed how to move from traditional solutions to intersection and circularity in addressing sewage and wastewater pollution. It also explored how to raise awareness of the many harms that sewage and wastewater cause to the ocean and to public health. Participants also discovered new ways to take action against ocean pollution from sewage and wastewater. Panellists included: • Folayinka Dania, chief resilience officer, Lagos • Amelia Wenger, conservation scientist and water pollution program lead, Wildlife Conservation Society • Alberto P., vice-president engineering, Running Tide • Jasmine Fournier, executive director, Ocean Sewage Alliance Key takeaways: 🌊 Global sanitation crisis: multi-sector, multidisciplinary; cannot be tackled by only one sector 🌊 Integrated conservation and sanitation approaches offer lots of co-benefits 🌊 Focus on the source (human, animal; pharmaceutical, chemicals; urban, land  etc) 🌊 Understand climate change links (e.g. water level rising, overflowing sewers) 🌊 A circular approach is needed (cleaning and reusing water; currently: diluting) 🌊 Small-scale sludge-making systems could work (vs giant treatment plants), but they are currently not cost-effective 🌊 Appreciate the cost of inaction: human health, corals/coastal erosion, aquaculture contamination, antimicrobials 🌊 Appreciate the benefits of action: ecosystem restoration, CDR, co-benefits for markets 🌊 The need for a social contract with local communities: can help to get to solutions faster 🌊 Education still needed: e.g. on benefits of nature-based solutions and innovative approaches like beers using recycled wastewater #ocean #blueeconomy #sewage #sanitation #wastewater

Today‘s panel at #OSM (Ocean Sciences Meeting in New Orleans) had some unexpected changes, but collaborating with Mallory Ringham and William Burt made it a memorable and enjoyable experience. It was my first time speaking on a panel like this, and it was exciting to add the legal dimension to the discussions on MRV for mCDR. Thank you for all the active participation from the audience and for the moderation Christopher Whitt! 🌊 Let’s keep this discussion going! #designthefutureocean IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society Ebb Carbon Planetary Running Tide Ocean Visions UN Ocean Decade Carbon to Sea Initiative American Geophysical Union Early Career Ocean Professionals
