Brilliant 👏

Off the coast of Norway, a quiet revolution is growing beneath the waves — massive ocean farms cultivating kelp at an industrial scale. These underwater forests aren’t just about producing seaweed for food or fuel. Kelp absorbs carbon dioxide from the water at incredible rates, acting as a powerful natural climate tool. In fact, it captures carbon up to 50 times faster than land-based forests.

Floating on giant grids, long ropes are seeded with young kelp plants. As they grow, they stretch down into the sea like green curtains, soaking up sunlight and CO₂. This not only helps fight ocean acidification but also provides shelter for marine life, boosts biodiversity, and even improves water quality. The farms require no freshwater, fertilizers, or arable land — making them one of the most sustainable farming methods on the planet.

Norway, with its vast coastline and cold nutrient-rich waters, is leading the way in turning kelp into a climate ally. The harvested kelp can be used in food products, biofuels, animal feed, and even biodegradable packaging. Some companies are exploring ways to sink carbon-rich kelp deep into the ocean, locking away carbon for centuries.

This ocean-based farming shows that the fight against climate change isn’t just on land. With innovation and scale, kelp could become a frontline warrior in our battle to heal the planet — silently growing, cleaning, and capturing carbon beneath the sea’s surface.

Can anyone help?!
One of our families is wondering if anyone has seen a lost little black cat, Wandering anywhere near the Windmill Pool in Swavesey? His name is Jango. He’s been missing since Saturday. Although he lives in Whitegate Close, Swavesey, he often nips across the fields and hangs out around Swavesey Windmill. Could people leave a comment if they’ve seen him in the last few days? Here’s a pic of him… Thanks so much! He's super friendly 🤗
