ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week on World Ocean Radio we’re discussing a news story provided by Inside Climate News that highlights Corpus Christi, Texas and its intensively water-dependent industrial projects that, by special commitments and permits, are consuming the necessary water supply at a rate of 30 million gallons per day, drawn from an already-stressed groundwater supply, now further exacerbated by droughts and population consumption.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Peat lands, bogs, swamps, and wetlands are uniquely biodiverse natural spaces: soft coastal barriers that make immeasurable contributions to the health and sustainability of human endeavor. Left unprotected, their consumption contributes to a growing worldwide problem; conserved, they sequester carbon, enable wildlife, filter water, and protect us from coastal inundation.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week on World Ocean Radio we’re discussing the “Mind Map of Blue Ocean Leadership,” a chart developed by a global constituency of business experts, graphed to show existing leadership design while suggesting changes that are different from conventional approaches, charted as a “mind map” intended to fix, clarify, and establish an effective process to get the job done. If the world response to the challenge of climate change is characterized as “too little, too late,” it would seem clear that the old “mind map” has failed, and that a new approach might be a valuable shift toward “more than enough, in time.”

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week Peter Neill is reading from an article written by representatives of the UN IOC and the Natural Science Foundation of China, based on the concept of ocean as peace builder as an amplification of ocean sustainability. The authors argue that the ocean’s peace-building potential is inseparable from the objective and cooperative nature of ocean science.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
From an island perch in Maine, host of World Ocean Radio Peter Neill recently witnessed a full moon rising over the Atlantic Ocean. The silent, majestic way that it rose in the night sky got him ruminating about water, tide, sun, sea currents, power, light, nature, human emotion, and the often under-appreciated, surreal force of the moon.
