Is aquaculture finally ready for the global stage? This week, we unpack the World Bank's latest 100+ page aquaculture report—its first in 17 years—and why it's far more than hype. You'll hear what the data actually says about aquaculture's rise, where the next wave of growth will happen, and why the bottlenecks aren't biological, they're financial and political. From massive investment gaps to surprising country forecasts, this episode explores the report's blueprint for making aquaculture a cornerstone of food security, climate resilience, and economic growth. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

The Innovating for Earth podcast series returns to discuss the green iron opportunity.Steel is the backbone of modern society, yet conventional steelmaking is one of the world's largest sources of industrial emissions. Green iron therefore offers a large opportunity to contribute to both global decarbonisation and development.If Australia can take advantage of its iron ore and renewable energy resources to export green iron in place of iron ore, it is estimated that it could:Add 3x the value of its largest source of export income – from $120 billion for iron ore currently to up to $386 billion annually for green iron by 2060.Abate 3x Australia's current domestic emissions – equal to roughly 4% of the global total.   To discuss how Australia can seize its Green Iron opportunity, host James O'Loghlin is joined by Chris McMahen from The Superpower Institute, Max van Someren from Bivios and Chris Ormston from Calix . Together, they explore the scale of the challenge, emerging technology solutions like Calix's ZESTY, the economic and environmental implications for Australia and the world, and what more is needed to seize the opportunity.

The problem with seaweed aquaculture is that it's not always as ocean-friendly as it seems. While seaweed farming is often praised as a climate solution—able to sequester carbon, improve water quality, and support sustainable food systems—scientists are now warning that its rapid, unregulated expansion could be damaging vital marine ecosystems. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, we dive into how seaweed farms are being placed over seagrass meadows, disrupting fish nurseries, smothering biodiversity, and altering water chemistry in ways we're only beginning to understand. You'll hear about the overlooked risks, from nutrient depletion and fertilizer runoff to coral reef shading and invasive species. We also explore solutions: better regulations, smarter zoning, and the importance of protecting seagrass habitats that store carbon and support marine life. Seaweed aquaculture can be part of the solution, but only if we act with caution and science in mind.

Du 9 au 13 juin 2025 se tiendra à Nice le troisième sommet sur les océans (UNOC3), organisé par les Nations Unies à Nice. L'occasion pour nous de faire un point sur la pêche avec l'un des plus grands expert de ce sujet en France : Didier Gascuel. Pour rappel, les Français consomment en moyenne 34 kg de produits de la mer par personne chaque année, dont 10kg issus de l'aquaculture. En pensant régler certaines dérives de la pêche grâce à l'aquaculture, consommer certains produits comme le saumon, est en réalité encore plus délétère. Alors quelles sont les réelles conséquences de l'aquaculture ? Existe-t-il une aquaculture durable ? Peut-on continuer à manger du saumon ?Pour y répondre, nous avons le plaisir de recevoir Didier Gascuel, professeur en écologie marine à l'Institut Agro a Rennes et ancien membre du Conseil scientifique des pêches de l'UE. Didier a publié en 2023 un ouvrage nommé La pêchécologie, manifeste pour une pêche vraiment durable, qui plaide notamment pour une vision des ressources aquatiques comme un bien commun de l'humanité, où chaque poisson pêché a un faible impact environnemental et une grande utilité sociétale. Retrouvez l'ouvrage ici l'ouvrage La pêchécologie, manifeste pour une pêche vraiment durable, 2023.*** Pour nous soutenir : - Abonnez-vous à notre podcast ; - Donnez votre avis en mettant des étoiles et des commentaires sur votre plateforme d'écoute préférée ; - Parlez d'Écotable et de son podcast autour de vous ; - Allez manger dans nos restaurants vertueux et délicieux ! *** Écotable est une entreprise dont la mission est d'accompagner les acteurs du secteur de la restauration dans leur transition écologique.

Wednesday, May 21 -  Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on added value of producing for farmer's markets, how Brooke Rollins and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are working together for a healthier America and a focus on supporting local farmers, and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association's problems with the government over land. Next, Doug introduces us to Ryan McPherson, owner of Glidden Point Oyster Farms in Edgecomb, Maine. Ryan got his start in fisheries and looking for a way to stay on the water, so when the opportunity to take over the oyster farm (which was established in 1987) arose in 2015, Ryan went for it. Glidden Point Oysters are grown slowly, and in the nutrient-rich depths of the Damariscotta River, a world class growing environment. Their oysters are renowned for their heavy shell, and beautiful appearance. They start from seed and grow them in upwellers and floating bags on the surface of the river until they reach the appropriate size to be harvested.  Plus, all Glidden Point oysters are harvested by hand, and often by scuba diver. They touch their oysters every step of the way, and it's the care they take, whether it's grading seed, diving, or culling, that produces a premium oyster they're proud to share with others, and proud to call their own. When it comes to aquaculture, things move very quickly with a lot more dynamics to the process. You can learn more about Glidden Point Oyster Farms at GliddenPoint.com. Finishing up this episode of the American Family Farmer podcast, Farmer Doug opines about the state of the country as it pertains to the current administration and what it means for farmers and anyone in agri-business.Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Northeast Farmers Market SeasonHost Amaris Pollock welcomed Devin Cornia who is the Executive Director of the Northeast Farming Association of New Jersey back to the show. They discuss the upcoming farmers market season and the opportunity for people to interact with farmers and learn about agriculture.  They also discussed Devin's history within the industry, along with some of the programs, initiatives, and the publication "The Natural Farmer" which NOFA provides to the community.NOFA's Local Food Initiatives:Devin explains that NOFA (Northeast Organic Farming Association) is a 50-year-old organization with seven state chapters supporting organics, land stewardship, and local food.

Animal advocates want an end to public funding for research into octopus aquaculture. Farah Hancock reports.

Missouri's soybean crush industry and livestock enterprises are mutually dependent. Missouri's four crush plants produce nearly 4 million metric tons of meal annually, about half of which is exported. The remainder is primarily used for poultry, swine, cattle, and dairy in the state. Market development director Matt Amick says Missouri should produce more sought-after seafood, 80 percent of which is now imported.

This episode of the China Global podcast discusses evolving disputes between China and South Korea, specifically regarding their unresolved maritime boundary in the Yellow Sea. There is a long history of fishing disputes between the two countries in the Provisional Measures Zone (or PMZ) of the Yellow Sea, which is where their exclusive economic zones overlap. Although China and South Korea have engaged in negotiations over the years, they have yet to come to an agreement on their boundaries in the Yellow Sea.Taking advantage of the persisting disagreement on delimitation of maritime borders, China has employed gray zone tactics in the Yellow Sea to expand its territorial presence in the region. In the most recent dispute, China installed a new steel structure in the PMZ, causing a maritime standoff between Chinese and Korean coast guards.To discuss recent developments in the Yellow Sea and China's broader gray zone tactics in the maritime realm, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Ray Powell, the Director of SeaLight, a maritime transparency project at Stanford University's Gordian Knot Center for National Security Innovation. Ray is also the co-host of the Why Should We Care About the Indo-Pacific podcast, and a 35-year veteran of the US Air Force. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:43] Strategic Significance of the Yellow Sea[03:12] Expanding Chinese Control in the Region[04:08] Chinese Maritime Installations [05:20] Are these installations found in other regions?[06:00] Gray Zone Tactics in the South China Sea [08:20] Maritime Militia Activity in the Yellow Sea[09:02] 2001 Korea-China Fisheries Agreement[10:34] Testing the Waters with South Korea[12:09] Navigating South Korean Policy Dilemmas[13:48] Rehabilitating China's Imagine in Korea[15:14] Environmental Issues in Disputed Waters[17:18] Countering Chinese Activities in the Yellow Sea[19:40] SeaLight Tracking and Deciphering Chinese Actions

À l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de l'eau, le 22 mars, BSG rediffuse cette série de Petit Poisson deviendra Podcast dédiée aux plus gros poissons d'eau douce.  Le Silure est le plus gros poisson d'eau douce en Europe. Le record actuel est de 2,80 m pour 130 kg., des légendes non vérifiables évoquent des spécimens de 5 m!!Avec les Poissons-chats, il fait partie de l'ordre des siluriformes. Cet ordre rassemble le quart des espèces de poissons d'eau douce, soient 3000 espèces (1 vertébré sur 20 est un siluriforme !).Le Silure est parfois confondu avec le Poisson-chat, surnommés ainsi à cause de leurs barbillons, qui ressemblent aux moustaches d'un Chat. Mais attention ! le Poisson-chat, même s'il lui ressemble, fait partie d'une autre famille de poissons, les ictaluridés.Il y a 16 espèces de Silures dans le monde. Le Silure glane (Silurus glanis) est l'espèce la plus répandue en France. Il est originaire des pays de l'Europe orientale, des bords du Danube et des cours d'eau bordant les mers Caspienne et Baltique.Le Silure n'a pas d'écailles, sa peau est recouverte de mucus. Sa bouche énorme est entourée de lignes de très petites dents. Le Silure ne peut pas trancher une proie, il l'aspire et la digère. Bim bam sans fioritures…Ce géant est omnivore et se nourrit surtout au crépuscule et la nuit de poissons, crustacés, amphibiens, parfois de petits oiseaux et de micro-mammifères. À Albi, dans le Tarn, le silure s'échoue volontairement pour choper des pigeons venant s'abreuver.Sa voracité est parfois dénoncée, mais d'après des études récentes, il n'est pas aussi vorace que l'on veut bien le dire. Il est notamment cannibale, ce qui entraîne une régulation de l'espèce. Il paraît donc exagéré voire faux de le classer parmi les espèces nuisibles.Le Silure est revenu en France par la Saône.

A conversation with Sébastien Crépieux, founder of Invers, developing a decentralised insect farming supply chain for animal nutrition, placing farmers at the heart of the model. The role of animals and livestock in farming is something we cover frequently, but we've never discussed insects which can transform immense amounts of agricultural waste—such as leftovers from beer brewing or wheat milling—into high-quality protein and fats. Perhaps most importantly, their frass (manure) is an amazing fertilizer. Of course, humans could consume insect protein directly, but in the Global North, this is rare and may take a long time to change. Insect protein is also an excellent poultry feed, but its greatest impact may be in aquaculture—specifically, fish feed. The immense destruction caused by industrial bottom-trawling fishing fleets is difficult to describe and comprehend. However, it's safe to say that catching anchovies or krill for fish meal—to feed salmon and other fish—is highly inefficient and environmentally harmful.With Sébastien we explore a decentralized approach to insect farming in France, one that focuses on putting farmers at the centre—not by reintegrating large ruminants into farms, but rather small mealworms. Why not go super-centralized with massive facilities and raise hundreds of millions of euros, as some other companies have done? Why hasn't more insect meal been sold to the aquaculture sector to help reduce pressure on the oceans?More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/sebastien-crepieux.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

The Earth's heat produced from radioactive decay in the core has many benefits once recovered and brought to the surface. Most focus is placed on its ability to provide baseload power, which is important, but arguably the most widespread use case being heating and cooling gets overlooked. Geothermal is ubiquitous throughout the planet, however, it does vary by location the feasibility of extracting the resource, but harvesting low temperature resources can be done most anywhere. Once harvested, the use cases are seemingly endless, heat and cool your home, office building, school, grow vegetables, process dairy, aquaculture, and so much more.

Abandoned fish farms in Greece are plaguing the coastline with marine debris; however, Healthy Seas is working to clean up some of the sites and raise awareness for support to tell the Greek government that fish farm owners should be responsible for cleaning up their sites once the business is done operating.  In this episode of the "How to Protect the Ocean" podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the pressing issue of ghost farms—abandoned fish farms that are polluting oceans, particularly in Greece. The episode highlights the work of the organization Healthy Seas, which is actively involved in cleaning up these ghost farms. Key Points: Definition of Ghost Farms: Ghost farms are abandoned fish farms that were once operational but have been left to deteriorate, leading to significant environmental pollution. Unlike ghost nets, which can be found randomly in the ocean, ghost farms are known sites with identifiable owners. Extent of the Problem: There are over 150 ghost farm sites identified in Greece, with one cleanup in 2024 removing over 40 tons of marine debris, including plastics and fishing nets. The cleanup costs range from 100,000 to 200,000 euros, depending on the site's location and accessibility. Healthy Seas' Approach: Healthy Seas, led by Veronica Mikos, began addressing this issue after encountering a local environmentalist while on a project in Greece. They have since cleaned up two ghost farms and are advocating for better policies and enforcement to prevent future abandonment. Challenges in Cleanup: The cleanups are labor-intensive and require specialized equipment. Many of the materials, such as polystyrene, degrade and pose risks to marine life, as fish may mistake them for food. Policy and Enforcement Issues: Although laws exist regarding environmental protection and aquaculture, enforcement is lacking. Veronica suggests that fish farming companies should be required to deposit funds to cover cleanup costs, ensuring accountability. Community Involvement and Awareness: Healthy Seas emphasizes the importance of raising awareness about ghost farms and involving local communities in discussions about aquaculture practices. They aim to educate future aquaculture professionals about the environmental responsibilities associated with fish farming. The episode concludes with a call to action for better policies and community engagement to ensure that abandoned fish farms are cleaned up and that the aquaculture industry operates sustainably.
