About us
As far as we know, Grogenics is the only organization boldly tackling two critical environmental crises: the overwhelming influx of sargassum blooms and the urgent need to combat green landfill waste, notorious for releasing harmful emissions like methane. Our pioneering model actively intercepts sargassum blooms in bays and along coastlines, safeguarding not only marine life—such as fish, lobsters, dolphins, and baby turtles—but also vital coastal ecosystems, including mangroves, coral reefs, salt marshes, and seagrass. In doing so, we empower local fishing communities to thrive amid these challenges. Our innovative, cost-effective, and eco-friendly collection system employs a modular and scalable approach, utilizing electric UTVs and carts to significantly reduce noise pollution, beach erosion, and shore disruption. What truly sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to upcycling harvested sargassum into biochar and nutrient-rich compost. This transformative process enhances soil health while fostering sustainable agriculture and livestock practices within coastal communities. We take immense pride in being the only organization transparently addressing arsenic contamination in sargassum, utilizing a proprietary microbial formula that neutralizes heavy metals, rendering them inaccessible to plants, and ensuring our end products are both effective and environmentally safe. Our groundbreaking work has garnered global recognition, including honors from the World Economic Forum, UNICEF, and the Inter-American Development Bank. We invite everyone to join us in this transformative mission to revive our oceans and combat biodiversity loss, paving the way for a sustainable future for generations to come.

Cross-border collaboration at its finest! I was thrilled to showcase Grogenics's innovative solutions for sargassum management at our recent workshop in Punta Cana. By uniting experts from Cuba 🇨🇺 and the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴, we're making real progress in combating sargassum and preserving our precious coastal ecosystems. Engaging local stakeholders isn't just about solving problems; it's about empowering communities for a sustainable future. We're extremely grateful for the financial support from The Ocean Foundation and the Caribbean Biodiversity Fund. Let's keep the momentum going and strive for even more achievements in the Caribbean! #sargassum #ocean #sustainability #biodiversity #compost #science #technology #climatechange
📢 We’re thrilled to share some details about our recent learning exchange workshop that took place in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic last month. This event brought together a diverse group of participants including government officials, agronomists, community leaders, and representatives from hotels in Cuba 🇨🇺 and the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. The workshop had a crucial purpose: to facilitate the exchange of best practices and demonstrate effective procedures for the sustainable removal and utilization of sargassum, particularly as compost. We’re deeply grateful to the Caribbean Biodiversity Fund’s Ecosystem-based Adaptation Facility for sponsoring this event through a generous grant awarded to The Ocean Foundation. The grant, titled “Community-Based Coastal Remediation in the Insular Caribbean’s Two Largest Nations: Cuba and the Dominican Republic,” underscores our commitment to advancing nature-based solutions. These solutions encompass critical initiatives such as mangrove and coral restoration, as well as addressing the challenges posed by sargassum strandings in both nations. Special thanks to Grogenics, Algae Nova, Club Med, CNAP Cuba, and Fundación Iris! 🙌 Learn more about our collaboration with CBF ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/d5Xe8UkE

Grogenics SeaGreen. Through proactive collection of sargassum in the open ocean using boats, we preserve marine life and protect ecosystems, with a priority on safeguarding mangroves, coral reefs, marshes, fish, lobsters, sea turtles, and bird nests. Our waste management approach eliminates sargassum and local green waste landfills, preventing emissions. Additionally, our biochar and biological formulas transform these wastes without any trace of arsenic, enabling sustainable agriculture in coastal villages. #ocean #biodiversity #Sargassum #Sustainability #OrganicWaste #Compost #SoilHealth #FoodSecurity #EnvironmentalSolutions #Communities #Caribbean #mangroves #corals #turtle #latest #technology #science #supportlocalbusiness #carboncredits #bluecarbon #ProtectOurPlanet #saveouroceans #ClimateAction #climatechange #FarmToTable #SustainableFarming #GlobalGoals

We're thrilled to announce our participation in the prestigious Monaco Ocean Week, #MOW2024, as part of a distinguished panel on March 19th at the Monaco Yacht Club Ballroom starting at 14:30. Joining us on this high-level panel are some of the most prominent figures in ocean conservation and research, including Jean-Pierre Gattuso (IMEV, CNRS/SUIDDRI, Chair of OACIS), Charlina Vitcheva from the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE) and the European Commission (TBC), alongside these esteemed panelists: 🔹 Minna Epps from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) 🔹 Jana Friedrich representing the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Marine Environment Laboratories 🔹 Nathalie Hilmi from the Scientific Centre of Monaco 🔹 Phil Williamson from the University of East Anglia Despite facing challenges like ocean acidification, warming, and oxygen loss, the ocean, covering 70% of Earth's surface, is crucial in combating climate change. The event at #MOW2024 will explore innovative ocean-based solutions and discuss the latest research on climate change's impact on the ocean. Our panel will debate the benefits and drawbacks of measures such as protecting and restoring blue carbon ecosystems and enhancing ocean alkalinity to increase carbon absorption. As a quick refresher, Grogenics' science-based technologies address ocean preservation, effectively addressing challenges such as sargassum and landfill disasters, and advancing a truly sustainable blue economy.

🌐 Due to its structure, methane traps more heat in the atmosphere per molecule than carbon dioxide (CO2), making it more harmful than CO2 after it is released. 🌐 Cutting methane emissions by 45 per cent by 2030 could help us meet the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. 🌐 For a more detailed analysis, please click on these links: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e5BFUEtP 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ejZ73wrJ #ocean #biodiversity #Sargassum #Sustainability #OrganicWaste #Compost #SoilHealth #FoodSecurity #EnvironmentalSolutions #Communities #Caribbean #mangroves #corals #turtle #latest #technology #science #supportlocalbusiness #carboncredits #bluecarbon #ProtectOurPlanet #saveouroceans #ClimateAction #climatechange #FarmToTable #SustainableFarming #globalgoals The Ocean Foundation MonacoTech Fondation Prince Albert II de Monaco William and Flora Hewlett Foundation UNICEF Gates Foundation US The Earthshot PrizeBezos Earth Fund McKnight Foundation Bloomberg Philanthropies The Rockefeller Foundation Chan Zuckerberg Initiative The David and Lucile Packard Foundation
