With ocean acidification and ocean warming growing concerns for coastal Alaskans and the seafood industry, a new podcast called “The Future Ocean: What Can Carbon Policy Do for the Ocean and Our Fisheries?” explores potential policy solutions to address these issues. Sponsored by the Alaska Ocean Acidification Network, the six podcast episodes use marine scientists, economists, and leaders in Alaska’s clean energy transition to discuss the different policy options, how they work, what the terms mean, and what action is happening regionally and nationally.

As carbon is building up in the atmosphere, the ocean is absorbing and storing much more heat from the atmosphere than it used to. This episode explores how ocean warming is transforming Alaska’s oceans before our very eyes and shares strong advice from the global scientific community to dramatically reduce carbon emissions, starting now, to prevent the most significant consequences. We discuss what scientists call a “tipping point” in the climate system – a large event that leads to sudden changes, beyond which there is no coming back. Guests: Francis Wiese, Stantec
