Urchinomics
Urchinomics
In an effort to restore kelp beds, rid barren reefs of purple urchins, and explore a new source of Uni, urchinomics has been working with Sea Urchin Divers to harvest and essentially clear out areas of barron reefs of purple sea urchins.
Urchinomics’ purpose is to rehabilitate unhealthy oceans into healthy ecosystems for the benefit of our planet and humanity. We do this by removing overgrazing sea urchins and helping nature turn a barren seafloor back into a vibrant kelp forest. The removed sea urchins are then ranched and sold as premium seafood to restaurants around the world. Our pioneering restorative aquaculture venture aims to turn ecologically destructive sea urchins into high valued seafood products that can be consistently supplied nearly year-round.
The Urchinomics Methodology helps restore kelp forests, which in turn supports greater marine biomass, biodiversity, and capacity to sequester atmospheric CO2, all while creating full time employment in rural, coastal communities around the world.
