Seatrees directly supports communities and scientists who protect and regenerate blue-carbon coastal ecosystems. Blue carbon is the most effective way to draw carbon out of the atmosphere and permanently sequester it. Seatrees works with communities around the world to plant and protect mangrove and kelp forests, seagrass, ridge-to-reef watersheds, and coral reefs.
Our projects do a lot more than sequester carbon. We measure our impact with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The regeneration and protection of these ecosystems provides critical habitat for countless species, sustainable long-term employment for local communities, and protects those communities from storm surges and sea-level rise.
Seatrees is an ocean-focused platform for people and brands to take direct action on climate change. There are many different ways to support the blue carbon projects on the Seatrees platform, and then tell that story to others.
Our Vision:
We believe the ocean has the superpower to reverse climate change, but we need to help by protecting and restoring blue carbon ecosystems. Theres no time to waste – the global scientific consensus is clear that we have the next 10 years to reduce our collective carbon footprint.
On Earth Day 2021 we announced our first major Seatrees milestone 1 Million SeaTrees planted. Were working hard to find quality new projects where we can work together to plant the next Million SeaTrees. Longer-term, our goal is to support 100 blue-carbon projects in threatened coastal ecosystems by 2030, in-turn becoming a global leader in developing blue-carbon projects.
