Have you heard the buzz about asparagopsis seaweed and it’s remarkable ability to reduce carbon emissions from livestock when blended with animal feed? This podcast takes a deep dive into the wonderful world of asparagopsis through the eyes of Sam Elsom, Co-founder and CEO of Australian seaweed startup Sea Forest. Sam Elsom previously worked in sustainable fashion with his label Elsom forging an rarely trodden path in it’s pursuit of sustainable materials and processes that would meet Sam’s standards. Fast forward to 2017 and Sam answered the call from Australia’s eminent climate advocate Professor Tim Flannery (our guest on Episode 38 of the podcast): there was no time to waste in reducing carbon emissions and drawing down carbon from the atmosphere. Sam didn’t know how but he knew the answer was in seaweed and this was his next calling. In this fascinating episode we learn how Sam and the Sea Forest team have rapidly built a remarkable seaweed business set to revolutionise the livestock, dairy and wool industries in Australia and across the world. This is a truly heartwarming account of what is possible when you put passion, science and opportunity in the room together. We look forward to following the Sea Forest journey and hope you do too.
