Resilient Earth Radio & PodcastReconnecting Markets with Nature: An Earth Day Talk with Renowned Financial Economist Ralph Chami (part 1 of 2)Send us a textWhat if we could see the invisible? The magnificent blue whale, stretching 110 feet long through ocean depths, remains completely invisible to our economic systems—until it's killed. In this profound Earth Day conversation with Ralph Chami, we discover how reconnecting our market systems with living nature might be our most powerful tool for planetary healing. Chami draws from his 32 years as a financial economist, including 25 at the International Monetary Fund, to explain the fundamental disconnect between our nature system and market system. While markets expertly value dead nature—oil, timber, harvested fish—...2025-04-2559 min

Commonwealth Club of California PodcastCLIMATE ONE: Blue Carbon: Sinking it in The SeaWhen most of us think about using nature to remove carbon dioxide from the air, we think of trees. Yet blue carbon, a new name for storing carbon dioxide in coastal and marine ecosystems where it can no longer trap heat in our atmosphere, may have even greater potential. Salt marshes and mangroves have carbon-capturing capacity that may surpass that of terrestrial forests. Seagrasses, for example, currently cover less than 0.2% of the ocean floor, but store about 10% of the carbon buried in the oceans each year. How can natural, ocean-based solutions benefit both the planet and the people who...2023-01-2758 min

The Waterline Live - Connecting to COP26COP26 - Review 8: Floodwater, Oceans, Threats and Solutions.The University of Hull deals with all aspects of water and oceans with respect to climate change which it presented at COP26 in Glasgow. Hiatt Jackson is the Technology Research Manager at the Flood Innovation Centre and explains how nature-based solutions can help us better manage flood water from extreme weather. The oceans not only threaten low lying land through rising sea levels but also offer a huge natural carbon sink to absorb excess carbon dioxide. However, this process can have damaging side effects: Dr Christina Roggatz, a research fellow in Marine Chemical Ecology at the University of Hull...2021-11-2529 min
