• November 2020
As part of the COUNTDOWN initiative to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis, marine ecologist Karleen Boyle, outlines a strategy that uses natural processes and existing techniques to remove large amounts of carbon from the atmosphere and oceans, and reduce coral reef bleaching and hurricane damages by cooling sea surface temperatures in targeted areas. In this talk, she advocates working outside of traditional channels and describes how the newly formed non-profit, Blue Carbon Catalyst, is organizing corporations pursuing net zero carbon goals, scientists, NGOs and the public to crowdsource resources and infrastructure that will speed up the deployment of these strategies.
