    I was suprised to learn that pearl farming is one of the most sustainable industries, as well as the one hardest hit by pollution and climate change. Its really inspiring to hear how this person could bounce back from so many setbacks. I wonder how he does it?

    Ive always said that kelp farms to feed animals while doubly creating ecosystems should be the future. Or aquaponics with fly soldier flies as food for the fish. Eco friendly cheap and high output of delicious fish.

    Pretty nice concept and kelp is just a very cool plant in general. I'm just a bit annoyed with the numbers being thrown around in the video. "If we can do this in 1% of the oceans we can create 50 million jobs" feels like a meaningless statistic if there is no data on how much of the ocean is suitable for this kind of farming.

    I believe, seaweed farming is fantastic, although I have my concerns about whales, and hoy they would deal with such entanglement of rope floating on the sea surface.

    The Climate solution space is exciting as it creates sustainability for living and much more saves our planet Earth. The regenerative ocean farming has proven its demand and must be adopted across the globe.

    There must be laws to curb dumping plastic, chemicals and nonbiodegradable waste into the Ocean. I love the regenerative Ocean Farming by Bren Smith. I live in Connecticut not far from the Sound. The Ocean is such a blessing and I respect those people who are trying to sustain it and regenerate life. Perhaps more people will join this movement.

      For the same reason we have cattle instead of hunting for wild bison (I suppose). A controlled environment has a higher and more consistent yield
