Is spring break in Hawaii actually worth it, or are you setting your family up for a trip that costs way more than you planned?

Nature is protected by laws on paper, but what happens when those laws are not enforced? On the high seas, beyond national borders, illegal fishing, whaling, and environmental exploitation often operate in legal gray zones. Environmental lawyer and author Sarah Levy joins the show to unpack how international ocean law actually works, where it fails, and why enforcement remains the biggest challenge in marine conservation. Law and activism collide in this deep dive into Sea Shepherd, Captain Paul Watson, and the controversial role of aggressive nonviolence in protecting marine wildlife. We explore how direct action has influenced global whaling declines, how illegal fishing vessels are tracked and prosecuted, and whether NGOs working alongside governments can strengthen international environmental law. The High Seas Treaty is finally in force, but will it truly protect biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction? From enforcement loopholes to deep sea mining risks, this episode examines whether international agreements can deliver real ocean protection or whether it will take bold action to give marine conservation real teeth.

Nature is absorbing more heat than we realize, and most of it is going into the ocean. Global ocean heat content has reached record highs, confirming what climate scientists have warned for years: the ocean has absorbed more than 90 percent of the excess heat trapped by greenhouse gases. Data from NOAA and findings summarized in the IPCC AR6 report show a continued upward trajectory, with no sign of stabilization. Ocean heat is not just a statistic. It is driving stronger marine heatwaves, coral bleaching, shifting fisheries, oxygen loss, and rising sea levels through thermal expansion. Peer reviewed research published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences and Nature Climate Change confirms that both the magnitude and frequency of extreme ocean warming events are increasing. The ocean has buffered atmospheric warming for decades, but ecosystems are beginning to show clear stress signals. If the ocean continues to store heat at this pace, marine ecosystems will face compounding pressure from warming, acidification, and overfishing. The key question is no longer whether the ocean is warming, but how much additional heat it can absorb before ecological thresholds are crossed.

In this episode of our “Ocean's Natural Cleaning Crew” series, marine scientist Erik Wurz reveals how sponges filter water, recycle nutrients, and quietly sustain marine lifeMost of us think of ocean protection in terms of visible action: removing nets, collecting waste, monitoring habitats. But beneath the surface, nature has its own clean-up teams: organisms that filter water, recycle nutrients, and make marine ecosystems possible.In this episode of our series on marine life that helps keep the ocean clean, we meet one of its most overlooked workers: the sponge.Marine biologist Erik Wurz (University of Helsinki) takes us into a world most people never notice: animals that can look like paper sheets, chimneys, or giant vases, quietly pumping water through their bodies day and night.A football-sized sponge, he explains, could filter up to 30,000 liters of seawater per day, removing bacteria, particles, and dissolved matter and releasing ultra-clean water back into the ocean. But their role goes far beyond filtration.By transforming microscopic organic material into edible particles, sponges effectively kick-start marine food webs, making energy available to fish, invertebrates, and entire ecosystems. Without them, many marine habitats would struggle to sustain life.  In some parts of the deep sea, they even form vast “animal forests,” structures that provide shelter, breeding grounds, and feeding platforms for countless species.And yet, despite their importance, sponges remain largely invisible in public imagination  overshadowed by more charismatic marine animals. That's something Erik hopes to change: “I hope this podcast helps make sponges cool.”The conversation also explores how climate change, sediment disturbance, and bottom trawling can disrupt sponge ecosystems with long-term consequences for fisheries, ocean health, and even potential biomedical discoveries hidden within sponge microbiomes.If Healthy Seas teams remove debris in marine habitats, sponges do something incredibly remarkable too — continuously and silently — by filtering, recycling, and sustaining the ocean from within.This episode invites us to look again at the seabed and many other places and notice the quiet workers already keeping it alive.Healthy Seas is a marine conservation organization whose mission is to tackle the ghost fishing phenomenon and turn this waste into an opportunity for a more circular economy. They do this through clean-ups, prevention, education, and working with partners who recycle and repurpose this material.

We look at The Wake of HMS Challenger, How a Legendary Victorian Voyage Tells the Story of Our Oceans' Decline. See more about the book here. The Wake of HMS Challenger, reviewed This is an important book, albeit a depressing one. Even a century and a half ago when this truly epic, multi year voyage took place, the seas had already been significantly impacted by humans and their activities. In the time since these voyages took place, and the author writing this book, even further environmental devastation has taken place, causing even more irrevocable damage. One surprise was that the phrase shifting baseline syndrome only appears for the first time on page 150. This is clearly a huge problem for humanity, both in terms of the scale of damage done to our oceans, and the fact that things have so completely changed that no one, in anyone life time, can realise or remember just how bad it has been. This book, with passion and interest showcases the impressive achievements of the Challenger. Crossing the major oceans many times, suffering tough weather and numerous deaths among it's crew and even the scientists too. Several years passed during the voyage, numerous crew members deserted, others drowned, swept away, or succumbed to tropical diseases. The distances covered were vast, and it took another fifteen years after finally returning to England for the fifty volume collected works, learnings and observations to be described, written up and published. The insights for science were massive, but, time and time again, as the author details, they were capturing a world, either lost, or soon to be, especially with the future wide scale dredging of the sea bottom that has destroyed so much sea life. This is an important, but sad book to read. In these crazy times of climate change denial, and the denigration of evidence based learning the efforts of the HMS Challenger show that the science is not wrong, rather that short term human profit is, time and time again destroying so much of the beauty and biodiversity of our planet. More about the author Gillen D'Arcy Wood is the Robert W. Schaefer Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He is the author of the award-winning Tambora: The Eruption That Changed the World and Land of Wondrous Cold: The Race to Discover Antarctica and Unlock the Secrets of Its Ice (both Princeton). More about the book In December 1872, HMS Challenger embarked on the first round-the-world oceanographic expedition. Its goal: to shine a light for the first time on the mysteries of the deep sea. For the next four years, Challenger's naturalists explored the oceans, encountering never-before-seen marvels of marine life. The expedition's achievements are the stuff of legend. It identified major ocean currents and defining features of the seafloor, including the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Mariana Trench. It measured worldwide sea temperatures and chemistry, creating baseline data for all ocean research since. And, most spectacularly of all, it collected nearly five thousand sea creatures and plants new to science. In The Wake of HMS Challenger, Gillen D'Arcy Wood looks afresh at this legendary scientific odyssey and shows why, 150 years later, its legacy looms larger than ever. The Challenger's scientists had no way of knowing that the incredible undersea aquarium they were documenting was on the verge of catastrophic change. Off Portugal, they encountered a brilliant starfish now threatened with extinction by microplastics; in St. Thomas, teeming coral habitats that today have been decimated by ocean warming; and at remote Ascension Island, the breeding grounds of the now-endangered green turtle. Lyrical and elegiac, The Wake of HMS Challenger offers a stunning before-and-after picture of our global oceans. It is both a reminder of what we have lost since the Victorian age and an urgent call to preserve what remains of the diverse life and wild beauty of our planet's fin...

Are you planning a Hawaii trip but stuck choosing between Maui and Kauai?

Ocean fish populations are under pressure, and public money is still part of the problem. The World Trade Organization adopted a Fisheries Subsidies Agreement to curb harmful funding tied to illegal fishing, but major loopholes remain. Billions of dollars in government support continue to prop up industrial fleets that contribute to overcapacity and overfishing. Research published in Nature estimates that governments provide approximately 35 billion USD annually in fisheries subsidies, with the majority considered harmful or capacity enhancing. While the WTO agreement marks progress, it does not yet eliminate subsidies that expand fleets or intensify fishing pressure on already stressed stocks. The OECD continues to track uneven reform efforts across countries, showing that global fisheries governance remains inconsistent. Can fish populations truly rebuild while governments continue to finance fleet expansion? This episode breaks down the science, the economics, and the political reality shaping the future of global fisheries.

Marc Mortelmans vous raconte l'aventure des premiers explorateurs qui passent de l'eau à la terre, avant de conquérir le ciel, sans oublier ceux qui, in fine, sont retournés à l'eau comme les baleines ou les manchots.La norme, c'est la façon dont on classe les êtres vivants et la façon dont on résume leurs caractéristiques : les poissons nagent, les mammifères voient, les oiseaux nichent au printemps, les amphibiens vivent dans les mares…La vie regorge pourtant de stratégies atypiques au sein de chaque groupe. On pourrait les considérer comme "déviant" dans le sens où ils semblent avoir dévié de la stratégie générale de leurs cousins les plus proches. Et cette déviance a souvent été un moteur de l'évolution. Elle permet de raconter l'histoire de la vie et sa façon de coloniser tous les milieux et dans toutes les conditions.Comment ont-ils débordé de leur élément originel pour en conquérir un autre ?

Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has received an approximately $1.5 million purchase order from the United States Coast Guard for the installation and deployment of previously ordered buoy systems. The award completes the acquisition cycle and clears the way for near-term field deployment of the systems in support of Department of Homeland Security maritime security missions. The company expects the order to contribute to near-term revenue as installation and deployment activities begin. Stratmann explained that under the scope of work, OPT will manage deployment, commissioning, and operational activation to ensure the systems are fully integrated and mission-ready. The buoys are expected to enter active service shortly after installation. Designed to provide persistent offshore presence, the systems enhance maritime surveillance, situational awareness, and operational effectiveness in challenging ocean environments. OPT's role spans manufacturing through installation and in-field support, ensuring continuity from delivery to operational performance. In addition, Stratmann shared that the company has shipped a WAM-V® autonomous surface vehicle to Greece to support ongoing customer operations and regional field activities. The deployment expands OPT's international footprint and underscores continued engagement across both defense and commercial maritime markets. The company has also advanced its integrated docking and charging program from prototype to full-scale build, incorporating autonomous docking and redeployment capabilities. Orders have been placed for key components to support system integration and open-water validation as OPT moves toward launching its first early access commercial solution, currently targeted for 2026. #proactiveinvestors #oceanpowertechnologiesinc #nyseamerican #optt #PhillipStratmann, #USGovernmentContract, #USCoastGuard #MaritimeSecurity #DefenseTech #AutonomousSystems #BuoySystems #WAMV #UncrewedSurfaceVehicle #MaritimeSurveillance #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity #OffshoreTechnology #BlueEconomy #AutonomousDocking #NavalTech #OceanInnovation #DefenseContracts #GlobalExpansion #2026Launch

If you love seafood, you're not alone — but every bite comes from a complex and fragile marine ecosystem. To keep our ocean ecosystems thriving and our seafood resources abundant, we need a deeper scientific understanding of how they function.

Japan has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by successfully extracting mineral-rich mud from the deep ocean floor near Minamitorishima. This operation, conducted at a depth of 6,000 meters, represents a significant leap in the global competition to secure rare earth elements essential for modern electronics and defense technology. By developing these domestic resources, Japan aims to reduce its economic dependence on China, which currently controls the majority of the world's supply. While the United States also promotes seabed mining to bolster resource security, the practice remains controversial due to its environmental and technical complexities. This successful test signifies a move toward commercial autonomy in a sector that has long been dominated by a single global power. Though the process is expensive and difficult, it offers a potential path to technological independence for Japan and its international partners.#DeepSeaMining #RareEarthElements #Minamitorishima #JapanTech #SeabedResources #CriticalMinerals #ResourceSecurity #JapanInnovation #RareEarthIndependence #OceanMining #ChinaSupplyChain #StrategicResources #DeepOceanExtraction #TechnologicalAutonomy #SeabedMining #RareEarths #JapanResources #EconomicSecurity #MarineMinerals #NextGenMining #ResourceDiversification #6000Meters #BlueEconomy #GeopoliticalTech #CriticalMaterialshttps://discord.gg/W7cy7Tg9http://atlantisseacolony.com/https://www.facebook.com/atlantisseacolony/

Marine Protected Areas are expanding faster than ever, but new research raises an uncomfortable question: are they actually protecting top predators? Satellite tracking of silky sharks shows that even inside designated protected zones, highly migratory species frequently move into heavily fished waters. If sharks cross invisible boundaries every day, how effective are those boundaries in the first place? Shark conservation and ocean governance collide when industrial fishing fleets concentrate along MPA borders and enforcement resources struggle to keep up. Studies reveal that some protected areas allow extractive activities, while others lack the monitoring capacity needed to deter illegal or unregulated fishing. The result: declining shark populations in places that are supposed to be safe havens. Ocean science and policy must align if marine protection is going to work. This episode examines the silky shark case, border fishing pressure, enforcement gaps, and the growing debate over whether some MPAs are delivering real conservation outcomes or simply drawing lines on a map.

Marine Protected Areas are expanding worldwide, but new research shows that protection on paper does not always translate to protection in reality. Satellite tracking of silky sharks reveals that highly mobile predators regularly cross MPA boundaries into heavily fished waters, exposing serious enforcement gaps. When fishing fleets concentrate along invisible ocean borders, even large reserves struggle to deliver real conservation outcomes. Shark conservation and ocean governance are at the center of this story. Studies published in peer-reviewed journals and vessel tracking data from Global Fishing Watch show that industrial fishing pressure can persist inside or along the edges of protected zones. Weak enforcement, multi-use designations, and migratory behavior create loopholes that undermine top predator recovery. Ocean policy and enforcement gaps raise a bigger question: if marine protection exists only on a map, does it count? This episode examines silky sharks as a case study, then expands to global MPA effectiveness, industrial fishing pressure, and what true protection should look like in the open ocean.

Send a textA man lifts the covering of an ark and stares into a world made strange—mud-caked plains, unsettled skies, and the quiet left by judgment. We walk through that moment with Noah and trace the precise timeline of birds, days, and decisions, then widen the lens to the sweeping changes a global cataclysm could unleash. Oceans growing, mountains heaving upward, climates splitting into ice and desert, and human lifespans bending downward—each thread connects to a coherent picture of a post-flood Earth.From there we head beneath our feet. Fossil beds spanning continents tell a story of rapid burial and vast energy. We unpack why marine invertebrates often sit deep in the record while larger land animals appear higher, and how mobility, habitat, and water flow could explain the order. The coelacanth surfaces as a provocative example—once labeled a relic of deep time, now alive and well—nudging us to reconsider assumptions about extinction dates and layer meanings. Polystrate trees and mixed deposits remind us that geology can be messy, especially if formed under violent conditions.We also talk about worldview. Data does not speak without interpretation, and whether you come with a uniformitarian or biblical lens shapes what patterns you see and which questions you ask. Our aim is not to score points but to offer a cohesive reading of Scripture and science that honors both judgment and mercy. If the ark foreshadows Christ, rescue is personal and present: safety through chaos, gratitude over pride, and hope that looks beyond the storm to solid ground. Listen, test the claims, and share your take—we welcome thoughtful pushback and honest curiosity.If this conversation moved you or made you think, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review.

Swami Sarvapriyananda unpacks the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta and its central claim: you are not the body, not the mind, not even your thoughts — you are pure consciousness itself. Through rigorous reasoning rather than blind belief, he guides us step by step into a direct inquiry of who we truly are.We explore the limits of faith-based religion, the pitfalls of mystical experience, the distinction between intelligence and consciousness in the age of AI, and the profound implications of non-duality. This conversation is not about adopting a belief system — it is about dismantling false identities until only the undeniable remains.FREE electrolyte sample pack with any purchase @ https://drinkLMNT.com/KnowThyselfBON CHARGE - 15% off red light therapy products I personally usehttps://www.boncharge.com/knowthyself[Code: KNOWTHYSELF]André's Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list___________00:00 Intro01:18 What Is Advaita Vedanta06:44 The Promise Freedom From Suffering10:16 Liberation While Living15:09 The Three Spiritual Paths23:38 The Path of Knowledge Jnana Yoga28:42 Discovering Our Ignorance29:49 Descartes and the Indubitable Self32:36 Ad: LMNT34:50 Deconstructing the Self37:18 Are You the Body42:09 From Body to Breath to Mind47:30 AI and the Difference Between Intelligence and Consciousness49:12 Consciousness in Deep Sleep52:23 If Not Body or Mind What Are You53:23 Pure Consciousness Explained55:04 Dualism vs Non Dualism57:42 The Dream Analogy59:17 Maya and the Appearance of the Universe01:00:28 Ocean and Wave Analogy01:01:13 Ad: BON CHARGE01:03:35 The Shift From Person to Awareness01:10:00 Awareness as the Ground of Reality01:18:00 The Root of Suffering01:26:00 Ego Attachment and Fear01:34:00 Living as Pure Awareness01:42:00 Practical Self Inquiry01:50:00 Free Will Karma and Responsibility02:02:00 The Illusion of Individuality02:14:00 Consciousness and Modern Science02:26:00 Death Rebirth and Liberation02:38:00 What Enlightenment Really Means02:50:00 Final Clarifications on Non Duality02:55:00 Closing Reflections___________https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com

Are you about to overspend on Maui activities that aren't worth it while missing the island's most incredible free experiences?

In this episode of The Jason Cavness Experience, Jason sits down with Emily Power, founder of Ocean Made, to talk about seaweed, sustainability, and building regenerative consumer products. Emily shares how leaving a corporate career led her to an unexpected obsession with kelp a material that cleans polluted water, captures carbon faster than trees, and helps rebuild ocean ecosystems. She explains how that fascination turned into Ocean Made and the creation of Kelp Pots, plant containers designed to replace billions of single-use plastic pots thrown away every year.  The conversation explores the challenges of building climate-positive products, why good intentions aren't enough to change consumer behavior, and how entrepreneurs can design products that are both better for the planet and better for customers. Emily also talks about the realities of entrepreneurship, collaboration, and what it takes to bring sustainable innovation to market. This episode is especially valuable for founders, makers, and anyone interested in climate tech, consumer products, and the blue economy.  Topics Discussed • Emily's journey from corporate work to entrepreneurship • Discovering seaweed as a regenerative material • How kelp supports ocean health and carbon capture • Founding Ocean Made and launching Kelp Pots • Replacing single-use plastic in consumer products • Designing products that shift consumer behavior • Building climate-positive businesses • The realities of sustainable manufacturing • Collaboration in ocean conservation • Balancing purpose with product performance • Lessons learned as a reluctant entrepreneur Connect with Emily Power LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilybpower/ Website: https://oceanmade.co/ Connect with Jason Cavness LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoncavness Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejasoncavnessexperience/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jasoncavness Podcast: https://www.thejasoncavnessexperience.com

Meet our new idol, Rebecca Rutstein '93, an artist whose creative process takes her somewhere almost no one else has ever been: more than 2,000 meters beneath the ocean's surface.Rebecca collaborates closely with scientists, joins deep-sea research expeditions, and climbs into a six-foot submersible to explore the hidden landscapes of the ocean floor — from bioluminescent life in total darkness to a vast underwater world that feels completely otherworldly.We talk about how a geology class at Cornell helped shape the direction of her work, what it's actually like spending hours inside a tiny sphere with no bathroom, and how she transforms scientific discovery into breathtaking, immersive art.Along the way, we uncover one of Rebecca's biggest fears.It's a funny, fascinating, and unforgettable conversation about curiosity, creativity, and seeing the world in a way most of us never will.And wait till you see her art.

Every year, 18 billion pounds of plastic trash gets dumped into our oceans. That's enough to cover every foot of coastline around the world with five full trash bags. Pollution has turned our oceans into a ticking time bomb. But back in the 1970s, a little-known development off the coast of Fort Lauderdale, Florida tried to save their local reef… by dumping a staggering two million used car tires directly on top of it. Um, what? Despite what you might think, this wasn't meant to hurt marine life – oh no! They wanted to help it. And the results might surprise you. So, stick around to find out just why two million tires ended up in the bottom of the ocean. Our Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

CardioNerds (Dr. Ramy Doss, Dr. Kelly Arps, and Dr. Naima Maqsood) dive into the nuances of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation with Dr. Jon Piccini. They provide a high-yield overview of AF ablation, guiding listeners from patient selection through post-procedural management. We review appropriate candidacy for catheter ablation across AF phenotypes, key elements of pre-procedural evaluation including imaging and anticoagulation strategy, and the fundamental procedural steps with pulmonary vein isolation as the cornerstone. The discussion compares lesion set strategies in de novo ablation and reviews currently used energy sources—including radiofrequency, cryoablation, and pulsed-field ablation—highlighting differences in safety and efficacy. They also examine surgical and hybrid approaches for selected patients and outline essential components of post-ablation care, including rhythm monitoring, anticoagulation decisions, and management of complications. This episode integrates contemporary evidence with practical insights to support clinicians delivering comprehensive AF ablation care. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds intern Dr. Bhavya Shah. NOTE: This episode was recorded in March 2025. Since then, the OCEAN trial showed that among patients who had had successful catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation at least 1 year earlier and had risk factors for stroke, treatment with rivaroxaban did not result in a significantly lower incidence of a composite of stroke, systemic embolism, or new covert embolic stroke than treatment with aspirin.  Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.
