Episode Synopsis "Living Break-Waters and The Importance of Nature Based Climate Solutions "

In this episode of the Y talk Climate Podcast, we discuss the amazing work of SURGE, a non-profit that aims to protect shorelines using living breakwaters made from oyster reefs co-founded by our guest Will Crolla. We explore oyster and kelp farming and ocean-based community engagement through Will's experience with two youth-capacity building programs: OceanBridge and CityHive Envirolab. Finally, we discuss the importance of accepting that climate change impacts are occurring and viewing nature-based adaptation solutions as an essential tool for building resiliency within our communities.
