Climate change is challenging our oceans ecosystems when it comes to seafood.
We’ve got unsustainable fishing practices such as overfishing, bycatch, unethical fish farming and even microplastics but seafood has quite the market.
The Nature Conservancy reports that fish and other seafood products provide vital nutrients for more than three billion people around the globe and supply an income for 10 to 12% of the world's population.
So how do we sustainably meet a demand like that and avoid depleting our oceans?
Well, in a bid to create an ocean-friendly alternative, today I speak to AQUA Cultured Foods who have created healthy, scalable fish-free seafood.
I speak to AQUA Cultured Foods CEO and Co-Founder Anne Palermo and their CGO and Co-Founder, Brittany Chibe.
Anne and Brittany detail their environmental and business journeys to create AQUA with products that flawlessly resemble in both texture and taste to your favourite seafood items such as scallops, tuna and calamari.
It’s a very clever system which has a climate initiative at its heart, and I hope you enjoy the episode.
