Pioneering novel research in reef restoration and carbon capture

through in-shore mariculture and innovative marine science practices

Our Vision

A thriving and more sustainable future where mariculture and marine science help mitigate climate change by permanently storing CO2 in calcifying organisms, while also creating healthier reef ecosystems and resilient coastal communities in the process.

Clam Mariculture

As our main avenue for direct carbon removal, food security, and threatened species preservation, we grow multiple species of giant clams.

We currently grow five species of giant clams:

Tridacna crocea
Tridacna derasa
Tridacna maxima
Tridacna squamosa
Tridacna noae

Education

We are constantly working to correct misinformation in the marine science field, especially as it pertains to coral reefs. We also partner with local schools to provide tours for students, universities to offer internships, and other foundations to expand our impact.

See our blog for the latest on our work helping to educate, elucidate, and inspire.

Clams sequester carbon, filter microplastics, and provide a bedrock for reef ecosystems - but they're now absent in most of their natural habitat range

By utilizing marine science and mariculture focused on these gentle giants, we can:

Preserve biodiversity: all giant clams species are threatened, and several are currently in the process of being included on the IUCN Endangered Species list.
Remove carbon: giant clams provide a quantifiable source of permanent carbon sequestration
Deter poachers: mariculture organisms could ultimately help meet demand for food and as decorative shells, negating the need to harvest from the wild
Restore ecosystems: our long-term goal is to re-seed lost habitat ranges
