Webinar presentation: Marine Permaculture: A Scalable Solution for Climate Resilience and Food Security, April 12, 2025
Author : Dr. Brian von Herzen
Dr. Brian von Herzen, founder of the Climate Foundation, presented a webinar session on Marine Permaculture—a groundbreaking approach that addresses three urgent global challenges: food security, carbon removal, and climate repair. By regenerating ocean ecosystems with kelp & seaweed forests and nutrient upwelling, marine permaculture can sustainably boost marine biodiversity, enhance fisheries, and sequester large volumes of CO2 from the atmosphere. This presentation explores how marine permaculture aligns with Prime Minister Modi’s ambitious goal of increasing India’s seaweed production 30-fold in one year, offering a strategic pathway to national and global climate and food resilience.
