Running Tide’s Post

Running Tide was built for our kids. We started Running Tide to restore balance to our planet by partnering with nature to heal the ocean and fix our climate for future generations. That is the victory condition. In the past seven years, the urgency of our mission has only increased. Unfortunately, today we are beginning the process of shutting down Running Tide’s operations because we are unable to secure the right kind of financing to continue our work with the urgency it requires. While this is incredibly disappointing, I can’t help but be proud of the work we have done as a team. We did the thing. We grew oysters, we removed carbon, and we increased the world's understanding of the ocean. Starting a company of any kind is a hopeful act. Starting a company with the explicit goal of restoring nature and healing the ocean requires hope for the future and humility in the face of the complexity and the scale of the problem. I still have hope. The victory condition remains the same. So grab a shovel, we still have work to do.

The ocean is a powerful ally in the fight against climate change. That's why we, alongside Captura, Equatic.tech, Ebb Carbon, Carbon180, Carbon Removal Alliance, Clean Air Task Force, Hourglass Climate, LTC Action, Ocean Visions, World Resources Institute, and Vesta, PBC have requested federal funding to research Ocean CDR. https://lnkd.in/gQPaWtVp

We are thrilled to share insights from our work with Norsk institutt for vannforskning (NIVA) on evaluating environmental safety in the Norwegian Sea! Their rigorous assessment of mCDR with our system supports its compatibility with Norwegian water quality standards. This collaboration underscores the vital role of science and local expertise in mitigating climate impacts. Dive into the details and read the full report in our latest blog post. https://lnkd.in/etEB2G7u #EnvironmentalSafety #NIVA #RunningTide
