How To Protect The Ocean

We don't always hear about fishing activity in North Korean or Russian waters, especially as a North American-focused media agency; however, I wanted to cover some news about the areas as it was published on the Global Fishing Watch website (https://globalfishingwatch.org/). The organization conducted a study that looked at illegal fishing activity in North Korean waters (by Chinese fishing vessels) and illegal fishing in Russian waters (by North Korean fishing vessels). The conclusion was that illegal fishing is active in both areas without any changes in activity in 2019 or the beginning of 2020. Listen to the episode to find out more details. Link To Article: https://globalfishingwatch.org/research/2019_analysis_illegal_fishing/ Do you think recent changes to Chinese distant-water fishing practices (discussed during the episode) will decrease illegal fishing in North Korean water?

The Orca, J35, that carried her dead Orca calf in 2018 that made headlines around the world has given birth to J57, a spry calf that for the Southern Resident Orca Population. This is the first successful birth since May 2019, which is averaging 1 successful birth per season compared to a healthy population that would birth 6-8 calves per season. The Southern Resident Orca Population has been plagued by human pressures of capture for captivity, hunting, and lack of salmon. Every birth counts for this endangered population. Did this birth give you hope for the Southern Resident Orca Population? Share your thoughts in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

A new study in Brazil reveals that fishers think Sea Lions have more of an economic impact on their fisheries than the data suggests. This thought process is similar in North America, which begs the question do Pinnipeds (seals and sea lions) have a negative impact on fisheries economics?

The International Marine Conservation Congress 6 has come and gone. Usually, I am exhausted and need a couple of weeks to get over the conference after having such a great time and resting my voice from talking to people for a week straight; however, this time around is a little different as I did not attend the conference as well as I could have. In fact, I would say that I failed to attend IMCC6. I want to be clear that the conference was well planned out and ran smoothly. I loved the sessions and the presentations that I saw were amazing. Listen to the episode to find out how I failed the conference. How did you like IMCC6?

Marine Scientists and Conservationists are always trying to improve science and conservation so we can better protect the Ocean; however, one conversation that is often left out is one of systematic racism in the field. We can better Marine Science and Conservation by dismantling systematic racism and that is our focus on today's episode with Nikita Shiell-Rolle and Dr. Ashley Scarlett. These two wonderful women recorded a 4-part series on Scarlett's podcast called The Guide To Mindful Conservation: Dancing In Pink Hiking Boots. The series takes a deep dive into the conversation that we all need to have in the Marine Science and Conservation Field. How would you go about dismantling systematic racism to improve the Marine Science and Conservation Field?

China's distant-water fleet is always in the news when we discuss IUU (Illegal, unregulated, and unreported) fishing activity. Unfortunately, other countries can't do much to force a country like China to change; however, in 2020, China made some big improvements to their international fishing policies that might help clamp down on the IUU fishing that has been happening for too long! Link to Article: https://news.mongabay.com/2020/08/china-issues-new-sustainability-rules-for-its-notorious-fishing-fleet/ Do you think these improvements by China will improve international fishing in the long run?

The year 2020 has been tough for many reasons. COVID and the actions that led to the Social Justice change via the Black Lives Matter Movement have made 2020 a stressful year, to say the least. However, there have been some shining moments that have come out of 2020, including the formation and growth of an organization called Minorities in Shark Science (MISS). I wanted to know more about the organization so Dr. Catherine MacDonald introduced me to one of the four founders, Carlee Jackson. Carlee joined me on the podcast to discuss how MISS came to be and its programs; what it was like to defend her Masters during COVID; and, what it's like to work with Sharks and Sea Turtles. This episode has it all!!! Enjoy!

The International Marine Conservation Congress has begun, but this time it's virtual (due to COVID)! How will the virtual conference be different from the in-person conference? I go over some of the things to which I look forward and some of the things that I will miss. The greatest part is you can be a part of IMCC6 and you don't have to be a Marine Scientist or Marine Conservationist. The price is right to watch some great presentations and get involved in some meetups.

I had the pleasure to speak to Dr. David Ebert today about his experience shooting a show for Shark Week 2020. The show that he was on aired August 11th and was called Extinct or Alive: Land of Lost Sharks. Dave talked about how he told the production company of where he could find 3 rare sharks in South Africa, the science that he was going to do for the sharks, and how he used his relationships with the local community to help him find the sharks. Dave is always on the search to discover new lost sharks and you can help him by helping to fund his next expedition. You can contribute to his Go Fund Me Campaign (http://www.speakupforblue.com/lostsharks).

Coral Reefs have gone through some big changes over the past 50-60 years and Scientists are worried that today's generation of scientists will have a different perception of what a coral reef will looks like, which will be different from the past. A group of scientists decided to ask a number of coral reef scientists that work in and around the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary to see if Shifting Baseline Syndrome existed in the area.

There are 260 Fishing vessels lining up along the border of the Galapagos Marine Reserve ready to poach fish just like a similar incident in 2017 where 300 tonnes of fish were found on a Chinese fishing vessel (most of the fish species were sharks). This is not the first time illegal fishing has happened. I name some other incidents that have happened in other countries.

There is nothing like dreaming to become a Marine Biologist. I never stopped thinking about the types of careers I would have in Marine Biology when I was in High School (it was a bit of an obsession). However, if I were to do it all over again, would I change anything I did to get to where I am today? You betchya!!!

July 26th was the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem, so it makes sense that Mangroves are the topic for today's episode. In the year 2000, the longest-lived cyclone destroyed over 400 hectares of mangroves that were crucial to the livelihoods of the people of Xai-Xai, Mozambique. The restoration has been ongoing since and it has its challenges. Link to Article: https://allafrica.com/stories/202007250175.html Do you think Mangroves are important to Humans?

I cover a great article that tells the story of how Inupiat communities are adapting to Climate Change in the Arctic by using various technologies that provide safer hunts and help build the proper infrastructure to the communities.

As the past couple of episodes have dealt with the topics of colonialism in Marine Science and Conservation, they got me thinking about how we could begin to be more inclusive. Obviously, inclusion and equity cannot be solved overnight and I am constantly learning about how colonialism and social justice issues are affecting various communities on a daily basis. However, as a Science Communicator, I started to think about my podcasts and the other podcasts within the Speak Up For Blue Podcast Network and how we can become more inclusive and diverse in the voices that I heard. I also thought about the lack of diversity in the voices on conservation documentaries. If we are going to become more inclusive and better at conservation, we need to hear from a more diverse set of science communicators. Who is your favourite Science Communicator?

I am doing my best to learn how Marine Conservation can become more diverse and equal and provide that information to you. Over the past week, two pieces of content have really inspired me to think better as a Marine Conservationist. The first piece of content was a short documentary called "Big Ocean Islands" which dove into the many issues facing pacific Island Communities that stemmed back to the 1940s when the US military conducted nuclear bomb tests among the islands. The second piece of content was a podcast in the Speak Up for Blue Podcast Network called "The Guide To Mindful Conservation: Dancing In Pink Hiking Boots" by Dr. Ashley Scarlett. She interviewed Nikita Shiel-Rolle who lives on Cat Island in the Bahamas. Nikita discusses how colonialism is still in practice today and is conducted within conservation. Content like this is truly inspiring and needs to be out there. So I give my thoughts about colonialism in science and try to find solutions (and ask for solutions from you) to improve Marine Conservation.

Last year, we observed 215 dead Gray Whales wash ashore. Scientists believe that more whales died and were stuck in some gyres or sank to the bottom of the sea.

Dolphins are fairly intelligent, we know that. However, the fact that we now know dolphins teach each other how to use tools to hunt more efficiently. To top it off, dolphins are teaching other siblings and friends how to use such tools. Normally, the teaching comes from mother to calf, but not this time. What do you think dolphins can do that we don't know yet? Share your thoughts in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

Marine Parks can provide some sort of protection; however, it all depends on the types of Ocean uses that are allowed to take place such as fishing or deep-sea mining. More protections may be necessary once research in the marine park takes place. An example of this scenario occurred in a recent study at a Marine Park in Australian Water where the banks and pinnacles that typified the undersea habitats made way for a higher than expected number of species. The high biodiversity increased the call for better protection from commercial and recreational fishing that is allowed in the Marine Park. Link To Article: https://phys.org/news/2020-07-underwater-cameras-reveal-biodiversity-hotspot.html Did you think we should be putting more restrictions on the Marine Park now that we know it has a high biodiversity?

Stories are the way we connect to a particular topic. When we read a book, the story captures our imaginations. When we watch a movie, people look for great storytelling as special effects can only get you so far. The point is storytelling is a tried and tested way to get your message across. It's a skill that some people may have and others need to learn (including myself!). Do you use storytelling in your SciComm work?

Finally! I have some great news to share. There was a study that used a drone to count Green Sea Turtles as they waiting along the shoreline of an island in the Great Barrier Reef.

It's difficult to stop the illegal trade of endangered animals during "normal" times. Now, try and stop the same trade during a pandemic when there are fewer resources to inspect crates that travel all over the world. Turtles, Sharks, and Totoaba have all paid the price. It's something we need to discuss.

Being a Marine Biologist is THE best! People love hearing that you are a Marine Biologist when you are introduced at a gathering of some sort. You become more interesting because not many people know Marine Biologists. However, we sometimes take on the persona of being a Marine Biologist too much where we don't allow ourselves to become something else as well. And that can lead to burning out. Here is a PSA on how to be more than just a Marine Biologist. Do you dive into your work too much? Share your experience in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

There was a great news video on shark incidents on Reunion Island that showed the complexities of shark conservation when multiple ocean stakeholders are involved. The surfing community wants something done about the sharks, the environmentalists want to protect them and the government wants to appease everyone (but will probably make everyone mad at the same time).

Mangrove conservation is a focus along coastal areas in tropical countries that would like to keep Carbon Dioxide in the ground. Mangrove forests keep more than 3 times the amount of CO2 in the ground when compared to terrestrial tropical forests. So Mangroves becomes a focus when we are doing everything we can to keep CO2 from getting into the atmosphere. A study by a PEW Marine Fellow, Octavio Aburdo-Oropez, looked at the cost savings from Climate Change consequences if mangrove conservation was a focus. Listen to the episode for the results.

An article in Science Magazine (link below) shows how deep-sea bottom currents are concentrating microplastics in specific areas. Unfortunately, these areas are the same areas that are high in biodiversity. The biodiverse hot spots are diverse because of the same current systems that create the microplastic hot spots. The bottom line is that we all need to reduce our plastic consumption.

A race for the cure to end a global pandemic could affect populations of horseshoe crabs. How do horseshoe crabs tie into finding a vaccine you ask? Well, it's in their blood. The blue blood act as an indicator of the presence of contaminants during vaccine trials. The crab's blood will coagulate if there are enough contaminants. The problem is that in order to use the blood, you have to drain the crabs of more than half of their blood. the process kills thousands during mass crab blood draws. The good news is that there is an alternative; however, the bad news is that the US pharmaceutical agency is not willing to use it. Therefore, they continue to unsustainably harvest horseshoe crab blood. The USP is targeting the short game, but conservation is a long game. Link to Article: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/race-coronavirus-vaccine-runs-horseshoe-crab-blood-180975048/ Do you think we should continue to harvest blood directly from horseshoe crabs, or should we use the alternative, which has been proven to work?

The largest Atlantic US Marine Monument is now open for commercial fishing after the President of the United States signs an Executive Order to allow fishing to occur within the boundaries.

Today is the day we celebrate the Ocean. I wanted to make sure you knew why the Ocean was so beautiful and spectacular that I invited our audience members to tell us why they loved the Ocean. There are 6 members of the audience that are on this episode to tell you about why they love the Ocean. Once we have the foundation of why we love the Ocean, we can find solutions to the challenges the Ocean faces. That is why I signed up for EarthXOcean that starts on June 9th.

The movie Blackfish put the free orca campaign on a mainstream level and caused many things to change, such as the cancellation of orca shows and stopped the breeding program; however, what are we going to do with the Orcas in a small concrete tank. Lori Marino, a neuroscientist, has proposed an alternative that is backed by a dream team of scientists and advocates from all over the world. Lori is the Founder and President of The Whale Sanctuary Project, which provides an alternative to captive Orca habitat. However, there must be evidence to prove that the Orcas are do not belong in captivity. How about Chronic Stress? Lori and co-authors wrote a paper to demonstrate the effects of chronic stress on cetaceans in captivity. We discuss the paper as well as some plans for the whale sea-side sanctuaries.

The PEW Charitable Trust put out an article describing 10 of the highest biodiversity hot spots in the Ocean that we should protect. I describe why they are so important and what common characteristics in the Ocean give way to such highly diverse Ocean Areas.

There is a huge problem within the International Fisheries industry and that is the rampant use of Fisheries Slaves. Fisheries slaves are often recruited by companies to go on distant-bound vessels who overwork their crew, underfeed them, and throw them overboard when they die or are close to dying due to inhumane working conditions. The Indonesian government might institute a ban on their citizens working on international fishing vessels to protect them and work with the recruitment companies to ensure they work with the proper companies.

Imagine being a part of a research cruise where the team captures footage of a live deep-sea squid for only the second time EVER?! That's what my guest today can say that he did. Dr. Nathan Robinson is back on the podcast to discuss his joint venture with Dr. Edith Widder to develop a video camera that will be able to capture more footage of deep-sea squid in their natural habitat. They are crowd-funding the project so that you can be a part of history and help build a camera that will attract and capture footage of one of the most elusive animals on the planet.
