Aquaai is helping mitigate risk by providing water quality knowledge about our rivers, ports and harbors, coasts, etc. that ultimately preserves our ocean health.

 

Why is innovation to transform ocean health important to you: “In the past decade, over 12 000 extreme weather events bringing losses of $3.5 trillion have occurred. Extreme storms are a result of climate change and our oceans are dying from acidification, deoxygenation and overfishing, brought about by climate change, as well as overpopulation and marine pollution. Today’s ocean crisis threatens our survival. In fact, humanity's very existence is at risk. The ocean is our life force providing oxygen, food, medicines and more. Yet what may be considered the single greatest challenge for industries operating in the ocean or Blue Economy is access to rugged, yet affordable technologies. Innovation is our only chance as we need the tool to operate sustainably in order to protect humanity.” -  Liane Thompson, CEO.
