An important conversation about the future of krill, the billions of tiny crustaceans that are a keystone in the food chain of the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica, is set to air in an encore presentation. The overfishing of krill to produce Omega-3 oil products not only puts these creatures at risk but also threatens a vital carbon sink that helps absorb planet-warming CO2 from the environment.

The special video event will feature environmental journalist Ashlan Cousteau of EarthEcho International, along with Doug Heske, Dan Wheeler, and Matt Zimmer of Newday Impact Investing, Millicent Pitts CEO of Ocean Exchange, Aaron Niederhelman of Monger.fish, Philipp Stratton President and CEO of Ocean Power Technologies, environmental activist Melissa Walton, and Elizabeth Kim, director of the U.S. State Department’s Office of Ocean and Polar Affairs.

The discussion will highlight the importance of protecting krill and other species by establishing marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Southern Ocean. These MPAs would be regions where commercial exploitation is prohibited, and efforts to create such areas are currently underway through international treaties. However, there are financial and political challenges that need to be addressed to ensure the success of these conservation efforts.

Viewers will have the opportunity to learn more about the issues at stake and discover how they can contribute to the protection of marine life in the Southern Ocean. By spreading awareness and supporting initiatives to safeguard vulnerable species like krill, individuals can play a crucial role in preserving the delicate balance of this fragile ecosystem.

Earth911 and Intentional Futures’ Mitch Ratcliffe hosted the event, although he was unable to participate in the conversation due to connectivity issues. Despite this setback, the panel of experts and activists will provide valuable insights and actionable steps that viewers can take to make a positive impact on ocean health and conservation efforts.
