  • Why You Might Be Eating More Seaweed in the Future

    Why You Might Be Eating More Seaweed in the Future
    Jul 12 2024
    To hear proponents talk about it, seaweed could solve a whole lot of problems. It could feed people, restore polluted habitats and be an economic boost for fishermen. Though seaweed aquaculture has grown in the U.S. in recent years, the country produced less than 1% of the global seaweed crop in 2019. Now, some companies are trying to get seaweed aquaculture to scale in the U.S. But there are regulatory hurdles to overcome, and researchers have questions about how a scaled industry would affect existing ecosystems. WSJ’s Alex Ossola looks at what it will take to make seaweed a bigger part of the American diet in the future. What do you think about the show?

But these more delicious varieties tend to come in premium packaging—with a premium price to boot. WSJ contributor Elizabeth G. Dunn tells host Alex Ossola how this produce is bred and whether we can expect to see more of it in the future. What do you think about the show?

Concise and well researched

Well done -- it sounds like a follow up episode on the less bad fuels is in order. Is there $ from infrastructure bill to help make necessary mods to existing planes?
