The Ocean Optimism podcast shares stories, not often heard, about ocean conservation successes.Did you know that 45 stocks of marine fish populations in the U.S. have been rebuilt after overfishing? Or that a marine sanctuary in the Galápagos protects the world’s highest abundance of sharks? Welcome to the Ocean Optimism podcast, where you will hear the untold and not often shared stories of how we are ALREADY making a difference in taking care of our ocean. While it is true that the ocean is facing unprecedented challenges, we are also making great strides in our ocean conservation efforts. It is often the greatest challenges that lead to the greatest opportunities. So let’s talk about not just the problems but the solutions too. Join host, marine biologist, and science storyteller, Ellen Spooner, as she interviews scientists, activists, and leaders about how they are working together to take care of our ocean. This is part of a larger movement on social media to share #OceanOptimism. Episodes drop on the last Monday of the month.
