SUMMARY:Digital Panel Discussion: West Coast Kelp Watchers
DESCRIPTION:What do the west coast Kelp watchers see off their shore? This digital panel features longtime wild harvesters and conservation-minded aquaculturists speaking from their own experience observing Pacific species\, particularly in the last years impacted by ocean heating events that have caused cascading impacts in the coastal kelp forests. Each will talk about her own lifeworld in seaweed\, observations about changes in the ocean\, reflections on the territoriality\, customary practices\, and regulatory structures that inform their harvest. They will bring up some of the misconceptions and 101 thinking that they bring to their work as educators and naturalists\, “docents to the wild world of seaweed” as well as some points that are relevant for those who wish to see more careful state regulation\, and where/ how to approach a life in seaweed learning. \nPanelists: \nAmanda Swinimer of Dakini Tidal Wilds has been harvesting seaweed in British Columbia for more than 20 years\, trained as a marine biologist\, she is the author of The Science and Spirit of Seaweed and The Science and Superpowers of Seaweed: A Guide for Kids. She is a primary author of Seaweed Commons white paper and a longtime participant in Slow Fish International. \nJulie Drucker (Yemaya Seaweed) has been wild harvesting along the Northern California for the past 20 years. \nVisit the event page for the link to connect to the virtual event!
