In this episode, we venture into the heart of Maine's marine ecosystems to explore innovative approaches to mitigating ocean acidification (OA) through synergistic farming of kelp and mussels. Join me as I sit down with Susie, a seasoned expert in the field, to dissect the intricacies of this initiative. We delve deep into the unique characteristics of Maine's coastal waters and how the cultivation of these two marine species might serve as a beacon of hope in a region grappling with the detrimental effects of OA. A special thanks to Susie for sharing her knowledge and perspective, enlightening us on the vital role of kelp and mussels in sculpting a healthier future for our oceans.
