The continued contamination from the waste we spew into these channels of our food, and all the supporting natural systems of the oceans will soon reach a ceiling.\u00a0 And, it&#8217;s going to hurt.\u00a0 With 3 billion reliant on sea-proteins as their main caloric intake for the day, if we have only dirty or no fish we&#8217;re all due for a rude awaking no matter where you call home.\u00a0 We&#8217;ve begun farming fish in all reaches of the planet.\u00a0 In fact, today 50% of fish consumed is farmed raised.\u00a0 But, most of that farm raised stuff is nearer feedlot beef as compared to the clean and healthy moniker that open caught seafood had long-since enjoyed.\u00a0 That it&#8217;s all changing is an understatement.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3052 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo.jpg 500w, https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LetsTalkAboutFood.OceanFarming.LTAFlogo-480x480.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Sourcing Matters ep.\u00a0<span class=\"il\">40<\/span>: &#8220;Regenerative Ocean Farming&#8221;- live recorded at the &#8220;Let&#8217;s talk about Food&#8221; festival\u00a0@\u00a0Harvard University &#8211; Host Aaron Niederhelman speaks with two dynamic New England leaders in shellfish and seagreen production to learn what it takes to farm our waters.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Similar to a terrestrial grass-fed beef brethren &#8211; there&#8217;s been increased interest in regenerative ocean farming.\u00a0 Regenerative effectively means everything is renewed in the process of using it. It&#8217;s ecology down to trophic level, and up-throughout the interchange of vast systems which do include food animals, mollusks and ourselves.\u00a0 For those who do tend to the farmed fresh food from the ocean, alot of the hope for the future is being spawned in our clean cold waters of the Northeast. These local (ocean) farmers have developed models that give back to their natural environment to reap the benefit of a better crop.\u00a0 It just makes sense.\u00a0 By (i) addressing sea level rise and storm surge, (ii) alleviating hunger in impoverished areas, (iii) creating local jobs near highly populated areas, (iv) sourcing clean seafood as preventative human health care, (v) stabling natural environments in keystone areas (vi) motivated champions to fight for a cleaner environment &#8211;\u00a0<i>Regenerative Ocean Farming<\/i>\u00a0has vast potential for all coastal communities everywhere in the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">..<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><a class=\"ProfileHeaderCard-screennameLink u-linkComplex js-nav\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OceanApproved\"><b class=\"u-linkComplex-target\"><span class=\"username u-dir\" dir=\"ltr\">@OceanApproved<\/span><\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a class=\"ProfileHeaderCard-screennameLink u-linkComplex js-nav\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MatunuckOyster\"><b class=\"u-linkComplex-target\"><span class=\"username u-dir\" dir=\"ltr\">@MatunuckOyster<\/span><\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a class=\"ProfileHeaderCard-screennameLink u-linkComplex js-nav\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LTAFood\"><b class=\"u-linkComplex-target\"><span class=\"username u-dir\" dir=\"ltr\">@Lets Talk About Food<\/span><\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<blockquote>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ep. 40: Live recorded at Harvard&#8217;s\u00a0Let&#8217;s Talk About Food festival &#8211; we host a discussion about &#8220;Ocean Farming&#8221; with CEO of Ocean Approved Bri Warner, and\u00a0Perry Raso,\u00a0founder of Matunuck Oyster farm &amp; bar || Our&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3052,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"audio","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[56,29,37,32,38,7,57,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3046","post","type-post","status-publish","format-audio","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-circular-economy","category-climate","category-ocean_fisheries","category-health","category-ocean","category-podcast","category-regenerative","category-sourcing-matters","post_format-post-format-audio"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3046"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3046\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5278,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3046\/revisions\/5278"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
