  • Earth has its ways of dealing with it, we've just got to help.
    Jun 25 2024

    🌍 Join CSO Mike Allen, CEO Paddy Estridge, and Dr. Christopher Pearce in this podcast episode on modern-day climate solutions. Explore how Earth's natural feedback systems, like increased rainfall and weathering 🌦️ have historically monitored atmospheric CO2 levels and the urgent need for proactive CO2 removal strategies that mimic these natural historical mechanisms for modern day climate change mitigation.

    Discover the potential of enhanced weathering on land 🌱 and innovative oceanic processes, from chemical interventions to macroalgae cultivation, for carbon sequestration. With oceans undergoing significant changes, such as acidification and marine heatwaves 🌊 it's crucial to explore how they can be leveraged for climate change mitigation. Tune in 🎧 to learn about these approaches and their implications for our planet's future 🌏

    🌊 Join our CEO, Paddy Estridge, and CSO, Mike Allen, in this episode of the SeaGen Pod featuring Arica Hill, Director of the Environmental Awareness Group in Antigua and Barbuda 🌊

    In this episode, Arica delves into the intriguing tales of diving rats, hungry goats, and hiding turtles! 🐢

    Shedding light on the unique challenges and triumphs of conservation efforts in the Caribbean Islands🏝️

    Discover the remarkable story behind the inception of the EAG in 1989 and their heroic mission to save the endemic racer snake 🐍

    from extinction in 1995, when only 50 individuals remained. From removing invasive species on Great Bird Island to utilising photography 📸 for tracking environmental changes over time, learn about their ground breaking initiatives! Arica discusses the critical importance of environmental monitoring for addressing pressing issues like the Sargassum phenomenon in the Caribbean, and the broader significance of data-driven solutions in global conservation efforts 🌍

    Explore the EAG's pioneering work, monitoring 30,000 hectares of ocean space around Redonda Island, where they meticulously track the offshore impacts of land biodiversity restoration on seagrass and coral cover🍃 Above all, Arica emphasises the vital takeaway: the importance of using data to steer sustainable solutions, avoiding the trap of simplistic conservationist narratives such as "we need to save nature..."
