D. student in Oceanography at the University of Connecticut, Point Avery, whose study focuses on microplastics and their impact on marine bivalves or mollusks, explains how bivalves process water. ? According to Hannah, bivalves are able to process dirty water thanks to the tiny little fibers they have on their gills called CILIA, which helps them move water in and out of their bodies. ?

Through his work at BECC, Dimitrios is researching how mushroom-forming fungi break down organic matter produced by other organisms. While studying at the University of Athens, Dimitrios became very fascinated by fungi – particularly in their diversity and metabolic versatility. Since then, he has studied fungal ecology and function – attempting to understand the evolution and decomposition mechanisms of these complex organisms… Click play to hear Dimitrios talk about: 1) The fundamental questions surrounding fungal biology. 2) When fungi break down organic matter, and how it is done. 3) The kinds of materials that fungi typically break down. 4) The importance of quantifying the composition of fungus.

In this video, Amber Sparks and Emily Callahan, co-founders of Blue Latitudes, a women-owned small business and marine environmental consulting firm that focuses on enhancing the traditional concept of ocean stewardship talk about how they can increase the surface of their artificial reef structures. ? According to the co-founding duo, there are companies that sell reef enhancement materials, which ALLOWS their structures to draw in more marine life and create ecosystem value in an area that perhaps wouldn’t have it naturally. ?

Clair has published research on many aspects of inequality and sustainability. Her book Buddhist Economics: An enlightened approach to the dismal science (Bloomsbury Press) provides an economic framework that integrates global sustainability, shared prosperity and care for the human spirit. This holistic approach is based on actual national policies that reduce inequality, protect the environment, and support all people living a dignified, meaningful life. Her research team created the Sustainable, Share-Prosperity Index (SSPI) for 50 countries. Clair is a volunteer with 350 Bay Area Action, where she co-chairs the Legislative Committee to work on passing key climate justice bills in California. Read about Clair in Eminent Economists II: Their Life and Work Philosophies (Cambridge).

Tune in to discover: 1. How economics have changed over the last few decades for the better in terms of understanding human interdependence and impermanence 2. How the coronavirus has and will continue to change the economy and the way in which companies operate, as well as the way people perceive value and change 3. In what three key areas countries need to improve their policies and performance “Most people go into economics because they want to change the way the world works. Most people really do care about…how well people are living…inequality…the climate crisis, the health emergency, and racial justice, but economists tend to think that all of those things are interdependent in economic systems, and that how the economy works can make a difference in all of those areas,” says Brown, as she explains why she’s an economist. To her, economics is about figuring out how to take the resources we have and work with them to provide what people need in order to have happy and meaningful lives. She discusses her book, Buddhist Economics: An Enlightened Approach to the Dismal Science, which addresses ways in which to think about the worldview of how the economy functions and the assumptions derived from this worldview.
