This week on “Death in The Garden,” Jake and Maren share their interview with Dr. Greg Stone, a renowned oceanographer, deep sea diver, conservationist, author (Ice Island, Soul of the Sea), and host of the podcast “The Sea Has Many Voices.” Greg founded the Ocean Health Index and created the world’s first ocean protected area, the Phoenix Islands Protected Area, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site the size of California! Currently, he serves as the Chief Ocean Scientist for DeepGreen Resources, a company which specializes in a more sustainable mining modality of collecting polymetallic nodules from the sea floor. In this episode we discuss the urgency around climate change, the importance of a cultural renaissance of our ethics and morals surrounding our relationship with the environment in which we live, and the realities around a renewable future.Check out Greg and all of the wonderful, inspiring work he is doing for our oceans, and be sure to watch his Ted Talk.Please rate, review, and subscribe if you enjoy this project, and check out our website and Instagram for more information.Editing: Jake MarquezMusic: Daniel Osterstock This is a public episode.
