Bren Smith is creating a hub for the new 3D ocean-farming industry, which will act as an engine for job creation and food justice. He explains that ocean farming will address major issues such as overfishing and climate change while building the foundation for a new blue-green economy and transforming fishermen into restorative ocean farmers.

Ecological Redemption: Ocean Farming in the Era of Climate Change - Bren Smith

The 1st Annual E. F. Schumacher Lectures of October 1981 emphasized the importance of vibrant regional economies at a time when the focus of the nation was on an expanding global economy. Much has happened since then. The promise of the global economy has faded in face of ever greater wealth disparity and environmental degradation. There is growing interest in building a new economy that is just and recognizes planetary limits. The speakers of the Schumacher Lecture Series continue to be at the forefront of this movement.
