  • Summary

  • Welcome to RESILIENT EARTH RADIO where we host speakers from the United States and around the world to talk about critical issues facing our planet and the positive actions people are taking. We also let our listeners learn how they can get involved and make a difference.


    Hosts are Leigh Anne Lindsey, Producer Sea Storm Studios and GM of KGUA 88.3FM (an independent public radio station on the Northern California coast), and Scott & Tree Mercer, Founders, Mendonoma Whale & Seal Study.

    A focus of this podcast series are Nature-Based Economies that help rebalance the Earth and raise awareness about the value of whales, elephants, mangroves, seagrass, the deep seas, waterways and forests - our natural world - towards that rebalancing. This addresses the effects of our own human-caused climate change, and what we can do about it - from simple steps to grand gestures!


    Global experts, citizen scientists, activists, fisher folk, and educators examine and explain ciritical issues facing our planet and actions people are taking to mitigate and rebalance climate. We discuss the critical role of carbon storage, and how it is essential for all life forms on earth.


    This awareness could lead to new laws, policies and procedures to help protect these valuable resources, and encourage economies around them to replace the existing exploitation of oceans, forests, and animals.

    Taking positive action, and getting people involved, that's our goal.

  • Dr. Marcus Eriksen 5 Gyres Institute: Plastic Pollution in Our Oceans, What's Being Done & the 5th & Final United Nations Treaty Session on Plastics Nov 25, 2024 South Korea
    Nov 3 2024

    Plastic Pollution in our oceans, and on our planet - what is being done about it? Hear from Dr. Marcus Eriksen, a local Sea Rancher, marine scientist, veteran, and author who co-founded (with life partner Anna Cummings) 5 Gyres Institute which is studying the impact of plastics on the world's oceans, & Leap Lab, a center for art, science and self-reliance. Marcus lectures on marine conservation, breaking down the complexity of objectives and identifying common ground and actionable solutions. He's led more than 20 expeditions through the 5 Gyres Institute exploring and researching the world's oceans. And as co-founder of Leap Lab, he also lectures on biophilia, and the role of art, science and self-reliance to achieve urban resilience.

    Dr. Eriksen attended the 4th UN Treaty session in Canada and will be attending the 5th and final negotiation session for the UN treaty on plastic pollution in South Korea from Nov 25-Dec 1, 2024.

    This is an extremely important treaty. He says, "If we get it right, we set wheels in motion to decrease the harm from plastics. If not, then industry gets permission to pollute for decades to come."
