Full Circle International’s Post

During #WorldEnvironmentDay, we reflect on how our current way of living, producing, and consuming impacts our future. More than one-fifth of the Earth’s land area is already degraded, which also negatively affects marine and coastal ecosystems through processes like runoff and sedimentation. However, it's not too late to restore our environment. At Maritime Robotics AS, we focus on reducing our footprint by producing in our local Norway facility. Our Otter line of USVs is fully electric, and our vessels help customers reduce their environmental impact by optimizing operations and cutting fuel consumption. We also collaborate with companies to manufacture the hulls of the Maritime Robotics' Mariner USV in climate-neutral materials. There's always so much to learn and improve, which is why the UN Environment Programme has released a practical guide to help everyone get involved in ecosystem restoration.

Why does the future seem to revolve solely around batteries? Are there no alternative devices to power machines in the future? It appears we've reached the consensus that batteries are the most environmentally friendly and sustainable energy source humanity will ever devise on Earth. However, it's crucial to consider the health implications of batteries, including the potential radiation byproducts, which have not been thoroughly evaluated for their long-term effects on humans and other oxygen-dependent life forms. It may take at least four years to understand the full impact. As I consistently emphasize in my cautionary statements, "Whatever we invent, the well-being of humans, animals, plants, and the environment must come first." We must consider the full implications of our inventions; there's no need to rush for mere financial gain. After all, money cannot enjoy clean air or experience illness. #whatstherushhello #thepointofnoreturn #acouplemorebillions #aseriouspricetopay #wewiilbepayingforoxygensoon

🌍✈️ H2FLY continues to demonstrate that the future of sustainable aviation is within reach thanks to hydrogen-electric propulsion. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Josef Kallo, founder and CTO of H2FLY, explains: "𝑾𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒇𝒖𝒆𝒍 𝒄𝒆𝒍𝒍 𝒔𝒚𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒎 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒉𝒚𝒅𝒓𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒂𝒏 𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒄 𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒆.

We will have the pleasure of speaking during #seatechweek workshop about the critical role of unmaned susbsea system play in reducing carbon emissions during sea operations. Thanks to François Frey from Programme Objectif Océan, navire Esprit de VELOX for inviting us to the workshop "Beyond the Net Zero Research Vessels to emerge, which impact on the embarked research process?" on 16th of October". Here's why AUVs are paving the way for low-carbon maritime operations: 🌏 Zero-emission propulsion: Battery-powered AUVs cut down reliance on fossil fuels. 🌏 Independent deployment: Reducing the need for fuel-hungry support vessels. 🌍 Eco-friendly exploration: Mapping, monitoring, and maintaining our oceans with minimal environmental impact. 🌍 Drastic reduction in the costs of operations at sea 🌍 High data quality without compromise These technologies are transforming how we explore and protect the oceans, all while driving us closer to our decarbonization goals. 🌍💧 Agenda : https://lnkd.in/eE7diVtV #Sustainability #Decarbonization #AUV #Innovation #MarineTechnology #CleanEnergy #OceanConservation #LowCarbonFuture

This video is part of The Invading Sea's Climate Tech Minute series on Florida companies developing commercial products that address the causes and consequences of climate change. Jacob Ruytenbeek is founder and CEO of SailPlan, a Fort Lauderdale-based maritime analytics, efficiency and sustainability application. SailPlan is an emissions-monitoring platform for ships, helping them reduce their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. While the shipping industry currently relies on emissions estimates based on fuel consumption, SailPlan’s data is from actual emissions coming out of the fuel stacks. As Ruytenbeek states, decarbonization is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity today. The problem isn’t limited to shipping; Every industry is facing it. SailPlan’s technology offers insights and opportunities to reach global net zero with certainty, according to Ruytenbeek.

https://lnkd.in/dAjhGjs8 Marine Sustainability who cares? marine sustainability is a global concern for various reasons, and it should be a concern for us as a society. Marine ecosystems provide crucial services, such as biodiversity, food resources, climate regulation, and even oxygen production. However, human activities have put immense pressure on these ecosystems, leading to issues like overfishing, pollution, habitat destruction, and climate change. These factors threaten the balance and long-term health of marine environments, which in turn affect human well-being. Therefore, it is important for individuals, communities, businesses, and governments to work towards marine sustainability to protect and preserve these valuable resources for current and future generations.

I'm thrilled to share that my colleagues and I at AeroDelft were recently featured in IO+! This feature is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of the entire AeroDelft team and it’s an incredible honor to see our efforts in sustainable aviation recognized on such a platform. I was even more excited to be quoted directly in the article, discussing the challenges we encounter by working with this novel technology. At AeroDelft, being ahead of the market comes with its own unique set of challenges. One of the most significant hurdles we face is the availability of components that meet the stringent requirements of aviation. Many of the parts we need are either not available or are designed for non-aviation applications, making them too heavy or otherwise unsuitable for our purposes. To overcome this, we must innovate by combining technologies from various industries and adapting them to our needs. This often involves designing and manufacturing custom components, a process that demands both creativity and precision. Additionally, as we strive to develop hydrogen-powered aircraft, we encounter another major obstacle: the absence of well-defined regulations for hydrogen aviation. Securing a permit to fly means navigating a regulatory landscape that has yet to be established. This requires close collaboration with regulatory bodies to develop the necessary guidelines and standards, ensuring safety and compliance while also paving the way for future innovators in this space. These challenges, while demanding, are opportunities for AeroDelft to lead the way in shaping the future of sustainable aviation. By addressing these issues head-on, we not only advance our mission but also contribute to the broader evolution of hydrogen-powered flight. I am extremely proud to be a part of this process! A big thank you to IO+ for shining a light on our journey and to everyone who supports us along the way!
