Algae, an effective lever for carbon-free agriculture and consumption

Next, there is a need for public and private actors to work together. As a business, we can offer governments various solutions, such as the harvesting and processing project we have proposed to solve the problem of invasive Sargassum seaweed, notably in the Antilles. We are also a multisectoral operator for whom it is vital that current regulations are respected—and amended by government. The financial support of national and local authorities is also essential to our development—and we are indeed grateful for the support we receive, which enables us to continue our work.

The third issue is the financing of new projects that are often based upon innovation. We are about to set up a fund called ‘BioAlg’ that we hope will serve as a useful tool and lever for the development of new actors in the sector and the promotion of greater collaboration between as many of them as possible. Finally, the goal of creating a dedicated sector would be incomplete without including consumers at its very heart. The latter are both the ultimate link in the chain and the primary actors for change. We must show them that we have solutions capable of meeting tomorrow’s challenges in terms of health and the environment.
