Through our Greening the Coastal Deserts innovation, Atmocean will help create sustainable agriculture in rural desert regions, providing more food, while creating jobs & income. Our innovation also reduces the need for rural populations to relocate to crowded urban areas and protects, and protects & restores the ocean ecosystem.

Our innovation also reduces the need for rural populations to relocate to crowded urban areas and protects, and protects & restores the ocean ecosystem.
These will be the first sustainable agriculture projects in coastal desert regions powered by wave energy.
How does your innovation work?
We use wave energy to power our zero-electricity reverse/osmosis (ZER/O tm) desalination modules. The fresh water is delivered to drip irrigation pipe networks, creating new agricultural cropland in the rural coastal desert regions. The direct global impact is seen on food supply, rural jobs & income, CO2 drawdown (via photosynthesis), and nearshore ocean ecosystem protection/restoration (via de facto MPA's). Indirect global impacts include: less incentive to move to overcrowded cities; less poverty & crime; improved government services.
