Originally, I was going to do an entrie episode on the State of the Ocean in 2019, but I was worried it would be too depressing. Therefore, I decided to add the outlook of the Oceans for 2020 in the same episode to inspire hope. Do you agree with my assessment of the Ocean in 2019 and my outlook for 2020? Let me know in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

Every year, I review the 5 episodes that you, the audience loved so much. I always like to see which episodes you liked the best as it helps me plan content in the future. The episodes included zero waste stores, touching sharks, looking for sharks at fish markets, reducing plastic waste, and communicating science from Antarctica. What was your favorite episode of 2019? Share in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

I thought I would name some ways that you can take climate change action at home so that you know you are living for a better Ocean. In this episode, I talk about reducing/eliminating single-use plastic; buying second-hand clothes; and, buying inexpensive technology to reduce your home energy demand. Do you have more tips?

Australia is undergoing an unprecedented Heat Wave and it is causing mass fish kills along the Western Australian Coastline. Air Temperatures above 50C are occurring for over 5 days, which has never happened in this region since they started monitoring air temperature in 1993 via satellites. Higher temperatures do occur during the summer, but not until mid-summer in February. Higher temperatures in December worry researchers as they have never observed these temperatures this early. Higher temperatures and mass fish kills make you wonder why more governments are not taking more Climate Change action. I hope that protests such as the Climate Strikes will inspire more people who want action to reduce Green House Gases will run for office in the near future. Would you run for office so you could have an influence on Climate Action Policy in your country? Share your thoughts in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

I love hearing from the audience on how the podcast has affected you in different ways and/or what you thought about the podcast/episode. I decided to talk about a message I received from a listen about how the podcast has affected her life. I love positive stories like this. I also discussed feedback from another listener on Monday's episode (episode 941), where I used eating lifestyles as an example for the point I was trying to make about Science Communication. The listener made some great points and I gave them my response. Let me know whether you agree with me or your fellow listener?

Fighting Ocean Plastics, Implementing a NEW and IMPROVED Fisheries Act, and adding more Marine Protected Areas in Canada are just some parts of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Mandate Letter to Minister Jordan for the Fisheries, Oceans, and Coasts Guard Ministry. It is wonderful to hear of the new steps the government will take over the next few years to help secure Canada's Ocean Environment. Take a listen to get to know the specifics. I think you will like what you hear.

Often times, science communicators are trying to undo the damage caused by a documentary or a certain President that spews utter garbage that is wrong on a specific environmental subject. Science communicators need to work at getting ahead of specific subject matters to ensure that the proper information backed by scientific evidence gets out to the public before other people manipulate the science in order to prove their point. Would you consider podcasting? Share whether you would or not in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

I was listening to an episode of a podcast called Oppo (it's a Canadian political podcast that I listen to on a regular basis), where the main topic was on Nuclear Energy. The conversation quickly turned to other forms of energy such as renewable energy, fossil fuels as well as nuclear energy. Link To Oppo: Listening to the episode got me thinking of what would the energy sector look like in the future, especially since countries as focusing on reducing climate change. Take a listen to the episode to find out what I was thinking. Were you thinking the same thing? Share your thoughts in the Speak Up For Blue Facebook Group: http://www.speakupforblue.com/group.

Four NFL Athletes are using the program called "My Cleats, My Cause" Initiative to spread awareness of Ocean Issues by wearing custom-designed cleats to show their love for the Ocean. I LOVE this cause as the NFL is arguably the biggest sport in the US, North America, and maybe even the world (the Superbowl is the biggest sporting event in the world). Listen to how happy I am to be able to talk about Oceans and Football during the same episode, especially when there is a San Francisco 49er in the mix!

Research has shown that Oxygen levels are declining in the open ocean and along the coasts all across the world. This research does not paint a pretty picture for the future of our oceans as deoxygenation is going to negatively affect biological and biogeochemical ocean processes. Link to Article: https://science.sciencemag.org/content/359/6371/eaam7240.long The result? We need to step it up! We need to make sure that Climate Change Action is being discussed in the mainstream media and on social media platforms. What are you doing to spread awareness of Climate Change Action?

I had a thought about science communication the other day. I noticed that it's always the same people that speak up for conservation. The people who speak up are great, but it's always the same people. I feel as though we need new people to start speaking out. Great Thunberg is relatively new to the game and she has done a great job in speaking up for doing something about Climate Change. In January 2020, I will focus more on helping people to Speak Up For The Ocean Blue. This includes teaching an online course for Duke University on podcasting for environmental science. If you or the organization you are working for are interested, then sign up here: http://www.speakupforblue.com/duke. Are you ready to Speak Up For The Ocean Blue?

Indonesia is known for its beautiful beaches and clear ocean waters that are visited by millions of people every year. They are also known for blowing up boats who fish illegally in their waters, or so they used to be...maybe...we aren't sure yet. A new Fisheries Minister is contemplating the rule of blowing up boats is they are caught fishing illegally and replace it with boat seizures that are either auctioned off or given to local fishers. Some environmental groups are worried that the latter won't be much of a deterrent for illegal fishing. What say you?

I had the wonderful opportunity to create a podcast segment for my friend and fellow podcaster, Clay Groves who hosts the Fish Nerd Podcast. It is a podcast for Recreational Fishers to share fishing stories, have some fun, and discuss conservation. Clay took part in National Podcast Posting Month (NaPodPoMo), where he posted a podcast episode every day during the month of November. Clay asked me to submit a segment for his podcast. I recorded and submitted an episode of a recent article written by David Shiffman (https://earther.gizmodo.com/it-s-pathetic-world-fails-to-protect-one-of-the-most-e-1840056618?fbclid=IwAR2ofmNDQnPQtnpCsqiXOtwQOKXnTnIdxlqW5PKt-LYLhfyweXBylRIGMQ8) on the rejection of advice from scientists to protect mako sharks during fisheries such as tuna. Today's episode is that segment. I wanted to share it with you as I thought it was important. You can check out Clay's podcast on: Do you think the mako shark should be protected?
