Carlos Duarte - Chief Scientist, WAVE

In a discussion with Professor Duarte, a marine ecologist, the focus is on the global climate crisis and the urgent need for solutions. He highlights the alarming rise in ocean temperatures and the devastating loss of coral reefs, which are crucial for marine life and human economies. Despite these challenges, there is hope in the transition to renewable energy and the public's willingness to address the crisis. Professor Duarte advocates for a systemic approach to carbon management, emphasizing the importance of regenerative investments that create economic, social, natural, and cultural capital. He also discusses his work with WAVE, a platform aimed at ocean regeneration, and the issue of ocean noise, which disrupts marine life.
