Platform Earth is an environmental arts charity harnessing the power of carbon-negative art to fund marine carbon capture projects.
We believe art and the wider art community have the power to make a tangible and real contribution to mitigating climate change with a focus on ocean restoration.
We galvanise artists and institutions giving them an opportunity to direct the value harnessed by their work towards protecting and restoring marine habitats through our positive and solution based environmental projects. We engage the public through exhibitions and our innovative cultural events programme hosting scientists, actors, poets and activists, highlighting the benefit of safeguarding our oceans.
Our Cultural Programme brings together a coalition of artists, actors and environmental change makers to inspire support for UK marine carbon capture.
