Research is needed on how ocean carbon removal methods — such as iron fertilization and direct capture — could impact the environment.

For billions of years, the oceans have been absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere. Now, to boost that drawdown, startup companies and researchers are experimenting with ‘marine carbon dioxide removal’ by altering the chemistry of the ocean and sinking biomass to the seafloor.

Port Angeles could be the site of a pilot project for an experimental technology that hopes to combat climate change by potentially enhancing the ocean’s natural ability to capture carbon.

By harnessing the power of electrochemistry, researchers aim to counteract the harmful impacts of rising carbon dioxide levels in the oceans, ultimately contributing to the conservation and sustainability of marine environments.
