Summary Justin and Adam are joined by several guests for a conversation exploring the intricate relationship between food and culture in Hawaii, emphasizing the historical significance of traditional practices, the impact of introduced species, and ongoing efforts to revive indigenous food systems. They highlight the importance of sustainability, stewardship, and the cultural memory embedded in food practices, while addressing the challenges posed by modern dependency on imported food. - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave a Review of the Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy our Wild Fish and Game Spices⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Art of Venison Sausage Making Special Guests Lei Wann Kealoha Domingo Audrey Wilson Chapters 00:00 The Ancient Connection of Food and Land in Hawaii 01:23 Understanding Hawaii's Food Landscape 02:15 The Significance of Taro and Poi 04:11 Polynesian Agricultural Innovations 06:24 The Impact of Introduced Species on Ecosystems 08:45 Cultural Practices in Foraging and Hunting 10:47 Traditional Aquaculture and Food Evolution 11:17 The Practicality of Poke and Food Waste 13:41 Seasonal Gathering and Environmental Awareness 16:59 Historical Shifts in Food Sovereignty 19:24 Food Memory and Practical Sovereignty 21:41 The Fragility of Hawaii's Food Systems 24:53 The Importance of Cultural Practices in Conservation 26:48 Reviving Traditional Knowledge and Practices 28:56 Supporting Local Food Systems 30:11 The Tension of Food Dependency in Modern Hawaii Takeaways Hawaii's food culture is deeply intertwined with its land and history. Taro and poi are central to Hawaiian identity and genealogy. Polynesian settlers created sophisticated agricultural systems. Introduced species have drastically altered Hawaii's ecosystems. Foraging practices reflect a deep respect for nature and conservation. Aquaculture has ancient roots in Hawaiian culture. Poke originated from practical uses of fish, minimizing waste. Seasonal changes dictate gathering practices and food availability. Food sovereignty has been compromised by historical shifts in land control.

How do you put a price tag on nature?In this episode of Before the Tipping Point — where AI and Sustainability meet Climate Leadership, we explore the economics behind seaweed farming and ecosystem services with Ngoc Pham, Aquaculture and Marine Economist at Wageningen Social and Economic Research, Wageningen University & Research.Ngoc has worked on blue economy projects since 2012, and in this conversation, we unpack the complex challenge of assigning monetary value to ecosystem services provided by seaweed farming. The discussion examines:How ecosystem services from seaweed farming can be valuedThe economic and methodological challenges of pricing these servicesWhy seaweed farmers struggle to access markets such as carbon creditsWhether payments for ecosystem services could improve the profitability of seaweed farmingThis episode offers a grounded, economics-driven look at what it takes to move ecosystem services from theory into real-world markets — and what that could mean for the future of sustainable aquaculture.Support the show

90% of seafood consumed on the Oregon coast is imported, while most Oregon-caught seafood gets exported. This week, we explore how that's changing. We talk with Suzie O'Neill, Kaitlyn Rich, and Jon Bonkoski from Ecotrust, who just launched "Tending the Tides," a podcast about mariculture on the Oregon coast. Learn how oyster farmers became climate sentinels in 2007 when ocean acidification killed their larvae. Discover urchin divers using rock climbing techniques underwater in 50 pounds of lead, and how their catch feeds innovative closed-loop aquaculture systems growing seaweed and sea cucumbers. From selective breeding programs creating climate-resilient oysters to kelp forests buffering acidification, this episode reveals how Oregon is building regenerative ocean farming that honors Indigenous stewardship, avoids parachute science, and redefines what sustainable food systems look like. Featuring the Oregon Coastal Mariculture Collaborative's community-led approach to expanding "unfed aquaculture"—oysters and seaweed that grow without any inputs beyond what the ocean provides.

What if the most important lessons from 2025 aren't found in any single chart, but in how pressure quietly shifted across the system? In this episode, we step back from predictions and take a pattern-based look at what actually mattered over the past year in Norwegian salmon farming and what those same signals suggest we should be watching in 2026. By examining how business conditions, biological performance, environmental stress, and regulation interacted, we unpack why weak prices reshaped decision-making, why fish health improved despite record temperatures, how sea lice pressure continues to build beneath the surface, and why regulation remains the hard ceiling on growth. The goal isn't to draw clean conclusions, but to understand trade-offs. Where risk was absorbed, where it was deferred, and where pressure is likely to surface next as the industry moves into a more constrained future. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

This special episode of The Business of Aquaculture is released in honor of David Fincham, who has recently passed away.David was the Director of tilapiafarming.co.za, where he worked to support and help build tilapia farms across Africa. His contributions to the aquaculture industry were rooted in practical experience, mentorship, and a commitment to strengthening aquaculture businesses.In this episode, David shares how he entered the aquaculture industry, one key insight that can make a meaningful difference for business aquaculturists, and his most important lesson from his years in the field.This conversation is shared as a tribute to David's work, his knowledge, and the legacy he leaves within the aquaculture community.Support the show

In this episode, we hear from Hannah, a sociology major whose thesis journey crossed disciplines but always circled back to climate change. Her project draws on eighteen interviews with oyster farmers working along Maine's coastline—one of the fastest-warming in the world. Starting with a question about gender divides between different fishing methods, Hannah found herself pulled toward climate justice and the ways aquaculture communities adapt through strong networks, shared knowledge, and community-driven problem-solving. Tune in for insights into interdisciplinary research, the behind-the-scenes of an interview-heavy project, the tangible impacts a Reed thesis can have, and of course what Hannah really thinks about oysters.

Americans now eat more farmed seafood than they do from the wild ocean. That's turned farming fish into big business, one that consumers have benefited from. But the U.S. imports most of that seafood – we have very few domestic fish farms. Now, though, that might start to change. There are proposals to build massive fish farms in U.S. federal waters. And the Gulf of Mexico is where some of the early action is unfolding. Reporter Boyce Upholt explores the shift from wild-caught to farmed, what it could mean for the environment and economy, and our connection to the ocean. This episode is the first in a two-part series on the future of seafood, produced in partnership with WWNO's Sea Change.

Young professionals representing the salmon industry around the world share their thoughts on the lessons learned from this season's Salmon Farming: Inside & Outpodcast. Host Ian Roberts was joined by Janicke Eckhoff from the Marine Stewardship Council in Norway, Michelle Franze from the B.C. Salmon Farmer's Association in Canada, and Andrew Richardson from the Young Aquaculture Society in the United Kingdom. Together, these three guests founded Next Generation Seafood Alliance to connect young aquaculture professionals around the world.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with James Arthur, marine biologist and founder of Seatopia, to break down what's really in our seafood. James explains the truth about microplastics and mercury, why “fishy” fish is actually rotting, how parasites end up in wild-caught fish, and why regenerative aquaculture is the future of clean, safe, nutrient-rich seafood.He also shares how Seatopia ensures zero detectable microplastics, the safest approach to raw fish, and the proper way to defrost seafood at home.

Research done right here in the Maritimes indicates no. But there are places in the world where some kinds of sharks are drawn to aquaculture pens for some reasons. Alex Mason's interview with DFO research scientist Marc Trudel is followed by an extended version of his conversation with shark researcher Chris Harvey-Clark.

Join Jose Ramirez as he explores how advances in feed technology are reshaping aquaculture economics by tackling one of the industry's biggest costs — feed. It highlights how innovations in feed processing improve nutrient retention and feed quality, boosting fish and shrimp performance. The discussion also covers sustainability gains, from reducing nutrient runoff and water pollution to lowering the carbon footprint of feed production. Finally, producers are encouraged to track key indicators such as feed conversion, growth rates, and environmental impact to ensure their feed strategy is truly optimizing production.

What fuels the world's most powerful AI models isn't just data, it's how that data is labeled and given context. In this week's episode, we take listeners inside the often-overlooked world of data labeling, from Meta's $14B investment in Scale AI to the billion-dollar rise of Surge AI, and connect the dots to aquaculture. You'll learn why context-rich data—not just perfect data, is the real driver of better models, and how farms can apply these lessons to turn messy records into predictive intelligence.

This week on Everybody in the Pool, we're talking ocean tech — in a slightly roundabout way. Nano-bubbles are a tiny but powerful technology that's helping to make a big climate impact across wastewater treatment, irrigation, aquaculture, and more.Our guest is Nick Dyner, CEO of Moleaer, a company that manufactures systems to produce nano-bubbles — microscopic bubbles that can enhance chemical, physical, and biological processes. The applications range from improving crop yields to cleaning food without chemicals, reducing energy use in wastewater treatment, and even building a nearly chlorine-free Jacuzzi.We talk about:How nano-bubbles work and why they stay in water for weeks or monthsThe potential to cut energy use in wastewater aeration, which consumes 2% of global electricityUsing nano-bubbles to boost irrigation efficiency, reduce chemicals, and increase yieldsApplications in aquaculture, from improving salmon welfare to remediating ocean floorsSurprising future possibilities — from replacing soap to targeted cancer treatmentsWhy this “new class of science” is already deployed in more than 4,000 systems worldwideFrom salmon farms in Norway to backyard spas, Nick explains how nano-bubbles could be a critical tool for climate solutions today — and the sci-fi breakthroughs of tomorrow.LINKS:Moleaer: https://www.moleaer.com/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/Please subscribe and tell your friends about Everybody in the Pool!

Before industrial dredging, clear-cutting, and destructive fishing practices, our rivers and oceans were full of wood. Fallen trees, driftwood, and branches created underwater forests where fish and countless other creatures could thrive. That wood provided shelter, food, and the foundation for entire aquatic ecosystems. Today, much of it is gone, and so are the fish.Marine restoration expert Jon Dickson noticed this loss while working along Europe's coasts and asked a deceptively simple question: if we remove the wood, do we also remove the fish? His answer is the “tree reef,” an artificial reef made from pear trees and other natural materials that replaces destroyed habitat. It is a low-tech, high-impact idea with the potential to revive aquatic life far beyond local waters, and it is deeply connected to the broader regenerative agriculture movement on land and at sea.In this episode, we dive into: The forgotten role of wood in rivers, estuaries, and oceans and why it matters for fish How dredging and “cleaning” waterways destroyed essential aquatic habitats Why restoring fish populations is critical for global ecological balance, including land-based food systems The limitations of many well-meaning marine restoration efforts and how tree reefs succeed where others fail The design, construction, and surprising results of tree reefs How low-cost, replicable solutions could transform restoration at scale Why thinking like an ecosystem is the key to regeneration everywhereIf you have ever wondered how oceans and rivers fit into the future of regenerative food systems, Jon's work might change the way you see both land and sea.More about Jon and Marine Trees:Jon grew up in British Columbia, Canada, where after university, he worked as a forest fire fighter. In the off season, he worked as a polar guide and boat driver in Antarctica, Greenland, and Northern Canada. These seasonal jobs and education were interspersed by backpacking trips; his favourite countries (so far) are Iceland, Mongolia, Uganda, Slovenia, and with a vote for the home team, Canada. Since moving to the Netherlands to work on a PhD, he noticed a distinct lack of driftwood in Europe and decided to see if fish were missing habitat due to lack of wood - and so invented tree-reefs, an artificial reef made of trees to replace destroyed habitat.Agrarian Futures is produced by Alexandre Miller, who also wrote our theme song.

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.
