Large seaweed blooms are raising alarms all around the world. It is urgent to take appropriate measures to manage and utilize the blooms.
Anthropogenic pressures and climate change are causing large seaweed accumulations to occur in magnified and unnatural volumes.
Some blooming seaweed species are highly invasive, contributing to disruptions and permanent changes in the diverse marine ecosystems, posing negative impacts on abundance and biodiversity. Seaweed blooms are also disrupting fisheries and tourism worldwide, leading to costly economic and environmental losses.

Seaweed blooms are also disrupting fisheries and tourism worldwide, leading to costly economic and environmental losses.
Appropriate management and monitorization of seaweed blooms are therefore important to find and apply the right mitigation methods and valorization pathways.
Harvesting seaweeed from the blooms act as means of mitigation of further spreading.
By harvesting the blooms’ biomass, we are also valorizing the otherwise discarded and unvalued seaweed. Seaweed biomass can be circulated as a sustainable material to be used in everyday products and new innovations.
At Easy Harvest we create tools to unlock the power of the seaweed blooms and to provide channels for valorization pathways.
