06 - Christian Berger PhD, PEBL, UK

Christian is a co-founder of Plant Ecology Beyond Land (PEBL), a community interest company based in North Wales, UK. Christian has a background in Material Science and Sensor Technology and completed a PhD at the University of Manchester. 

At PEBL, Christian is leading the development of new methods of cultivating and monitoring seaweeds. To date the PEBL team has developed a Seaweed Hatchery where kelp seedlings are germinated and grown into juvenile seaweed plantlets before they are planted out to sea. PEBL has also developed environmental monitoring equipment such as programmable underwater cameras as well as light, flow and water quality sensors. This will help seaweed growers and environmental authorities to better understand the environmental impact of seaweed farming.

The Beach Collective will soon be launching a seaweed NFT representing a participating interest in a kelp farm we have leased off the south coast of Scotland.
