Plan Sea: Ocean Interventions to Address Climate Change
Steve Crooks and Elizabeth Guinessey on The Seascape Initiative
Our inaugural episode is a critical one and one in which host Wil Burns explores often throughout this podcast how we qualify, verify, and report claims of carbon sequestration from ocean-based approaches. Wil is joined by two experts in the field, Steve Crooks, who is the co-founder at the consultancy Sylvestrum Climate Associates as well as a research associate with the Smithsonian Institution, and Elizabeth Guinessey, who is the manager of the Food and Blue Carbon Innovation node at Verra, which is a non-profit organization that among other roles, serves as a secretariat for the development and management of carbon market protocols.
The conversation centers around the new Seascape Initiative and its potential role in carbon dioxide removal.
