The Coastal Basalt Solution

Harnessing Wave Energy and Volcanic Rock for Carbon Removal

The ocean’s tide is no longer just a force of nature—it is our most powerful tool against climate change.

Strategic Objectives

• Leverage high-energy surf zones to accelerate mineral weathering naturally.

• Understand the unique geochemical advantages of basalt in marine environments.

• Mitigate ocean acidification while permanently sequestering atmospheric CO2.

• Scale climate solutions using existing coastal infrastructure and volcanic minerals.

The Core Challenge

Traditional carbon capture is often slow, expensive, and energy-intensive, failing to keep pace with rising global emissions.
