Podcasts about oceans deeply

Every week, we hear about gridlock in Washington, D.C., attacks on science and new environmental rollbacks. As ocean issues become more prominent on the global stage, will the United States be left behind? Are there areas where progress can be made? After spending a week in Washington for Capitol Hill Ocean Week (CHOW) and moderating a Congressional roundtable on bipartisan action, Jessica Leber, deputy managing editor of Oceans Deeply, discusses these questions with CHOW organizer Kristen Sarri, chief executive of the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation.

Jessica Leber, Oceans Deeply’s deputy managing editor, talks with Vicki Ferrini, a research scientist at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and Seabed 2030’s regional coordinator, and Samuel Georgian, a marine biogeographer at the Marine Conservation Institute, about the Seabed 2030 project – how it will works and how the ocean community can participate.

The coming year will be a pivotal one for the ocean. United Nations delegates will begin negotiations to draft an international treaty to protect the biodiversity of the high seas – the 60 percent of the ocean beyond national jurisdiction Meanwhile, the International Maritime Organization is expected to issue greenhouse-gas reduction goals for shipping, a global industry not subject to the Paris climate agreement. And the movement toward sustainable aquaculture will accelerate as demand for seafood as a healthy source of protein to feed a growing world population rises, even as populations of wild fish decline. Jessica Leber, Ocean Deeply’s deputy managing editor, speaks with Peggy Kalas, director of the High Seas Alliance, Kathy Metcalf, president and chief executive of the Chamber of Shipping of America and Amy Novogratz, managing partner of the aquaculture-focused investment firm Aqua-Spark.

I comment on a recent article from Oceans Deeply where Dr. Asha de Vos commented on how the Marine Science and Conservation field needs to move away from Parachute Science and support more long term local initiatives in developing countries. Find out what Parachute Science is all about and why we need to stop. Also on the show, we talk about how Climate Change is decreasing the Walrus population in Alaska and how the recent denial of making them Endangered Federally is a slap in the face by the current federal administration to people seeking to reduce/eliminate Climate Change.
