Episode Details

“Climate change has been one the greatest failures of risk management in modern history.” So states the Back to Blue Initiative, an Economist and Nippon Foundation project. A recent article entitled "Calculating Ocean Risk," additionally states: “The scientific evidence had been clear for decades, but decision-makers have failed to act in a manner consistent with the scale of the risk.” This week on World Ocean Radio we are discussing the calculation of risk to the ocean, and its impact on all aspect of the global economy.
