Chris De Cuyper, managing director of Fremantle Seaweed, joins us to unpack asparagopsis, the red seaweed CSIRO discovered almost by accident, and the six-year journey to actually grow it at scale off the WA coast. We get into the science of how it works, why methane is the "low-hanging fruit" of climate action, and what it takes to turn a lab result into a commercial supply chain cattle farmers can actually use.
Chris also opens up on the funding journey, angel investment, equity crowdfunding, government grants, and where carbon credits fit into scaling a seaweed farm to thousands of hectares.
A great one for anyone who thinks climate solutions have to be complicated. Sometimes it's just seaweed.
