Abstract

A marine-based carbon sequestration device1and method comprises means for emitting light in a stratified marine environment, at or below a pycnocline or at a deeper marine level. The device may comprise an energy transformer which converts light into electricity, a conduit3for transmitting the electricity from the transformer to a deeper marine level and means4for emitting light at the deeper level powered by the transmitted electricity thereby to provide a light zone for promoting organic growth such that, in use, the resulting organic material sinks to greater depths and becomes incorporated into the marine bed sediment.
