Did you know that Canada's coastline stretches 202,080 kilometers long? Or that 70-80% of the oxygen we breathe comes from seaweed and other marine plants? Or that it's possible to scuba dive for work?
Neither did Madison... until she spoke with Dr. Amanda Savoie, a research scientist at the Canadian Museum of Nature. As the director of the museum's Centre for Arctic Knowledge and Exploration, Dr. Savoie recently led an expedition in Nunavut's Cambridge Bay to gather baseline data about Arctic seaweed to help scientists understand future ecological changes.
We also couldn't resist using our fave. podcast, Ologies, title style for this episode <3
