It’s a massive problem: We’re running out of good land to produce food, so we need to keep producing more food on less land.
Fishermen are turning to a solution they think can not only help provide more food more sustainably, but actually help replenish and heal the oceans too - a practice known as regenerative farming. Raising marine plants and animals together, called ocean farming or “aquaculture,” can help us grow food, fight climate change, and clean up coastal waters.
The aquaculture setups designed by nonprofit GreenWave are simple: using ropes, baskets, and crates, they cultivate seaweed, kelp, and shellfish. By using a variety of crops and creatures which all grow together in harmony, aquaculture can not only maximize space and yield, but is also more resilient than many forms of land-based farming, where reliance on one strain of one crop can lead to entire fields being wiped out with one disease.
Humans have relied on the oceans to provide food for centuries, with ancient Romans cultivating oysters in baskets - not too far removed from the 3D aquaculture GreenWave is helping to promote today. By turning again to the sea, and not only utilizing it but healing it with regenerative farming, we may be able to keep up the pace with less waste and a better world.

Yeah, making it a way to existing fisherman to prosper is really exciting! Often the first reaction to new technology is "what about the jobs that will be obsolete?" and that is not only less of a problem with this, but at a time when overfishing is threatening jobs already, it could be a way to save them and help preserve local economies as well as the environment. Fingers crossed!

Absolutely Tom, it's a very promising aquaponics technique! Though I would consider adding sources for general added credibility to claims. But I digress, here's my 2 cents. Land usage, yes, we have finite capacity. And it can only be so efficient. And to make more we have to either condense urban areas, or demolish more ecosystems. Both have pros and cons. But we also have a lot of untapped ocean to work with. However, not without complications. Regarding environmental impact and biodiversity. These open water farms may unbalance an ecosystem as we'd be fundamentally changing the "landscape" and available resources. Which could lead to some species outcompeting others. Likewise, without careful regulating, companies *will* trample coastal ecosystems if monetarily advantageous. Challenges to overcome. As far as biofuels, grains of salt. Traditionally these require more energy to produce than the fuel it produces. And they require energy intensive refining processes to make plants into fuel. Making them less eco friendly than expected. They are by extension less energy dense per gallon, among other "catches". Now, if some strides are made technologically? Godspeed, but as far as I know, they are not yet the de facto choice. Though seaweed could be a promising candidate. And it's carbon capturing is spot on, even if that alone is just a small part of the whole solution of climate change. In conclusion, an engaging sampler on the future of food production. Thank you for giving the topic well deserved attention Tom. It's a fascinating topic.

It's not about yields (it has never been), but re-engineering the way our food system works. Currently, we produce enough food to feed 1.5x the world's population, yet only 65% of such production is consumed by humans (roughly 35% is thrown away). Wanna save the planet? Let's come up with a smart way of dealing with food loss and waste, or make smalls changes in our dietary patterns... it all starts with us. P.S. not saying alternative (eco-friendly) food production approaches are bad, I'm just saying that we should take a broader approach.

As with all 6 min videos on complex topics, this is a very incomplete picture and does not accurately understand the problems of industrial agriculture. But the first fallacy is the logic of, "well we depleted the land so let's look for the next thing to deplete, the ocean. And we will say that we are doing it regeneratively". It is true that this is part of the solution. But what is not the solution is abandoning the soil and land and not taking the time to Regenerate it which we know can be done and is being done. Go out and support your regenerative farmer by visiting your local farm and purchase from them as much as you feasibly can. There is only one way out of this and that is getting back to reverence, love and respect for mother earth and working with her and not against her.

Vedios like this, remind me how much I love humanity's ingenuity--yet, pose disturbing questions. Who has the right to own ocean, in any measurements? Do corperations, really? The mission, always, originates with genuine drive for global benefit, yet, we never bother to look a little further. What happens, when, all, ocean is privately owned? The freedom, of fishing freely, in your own country, or, even, swimming, potentially degrades. With humanity expanding, will people have the same--God given--rights, we have today? Or do corperations want to buy, even, more, power, over humanity's natural rights? Hmm. Sounds like a trade, not a solution. Does this, indirectly, reveal, we are, already, owned, outside of our meditative states? Everything is a trade off, in life. Everyone has the right to choose. Back in the day, corperations did not act, for humanity's benefit, without financial gain. Today, it's not about financial gain. The decisions made today, directly, affect, future generations freedom to nature--itself. We must decide wisely, if, the mission-goal-is truely genuine, for assisting the future generations, then, the organizations envolved, globally, should be limited to owning ocean--with no rights to coastlines; nor any rights, to sea, in countries with multiple islands. After all, we are creatures residing on land, but the ocean aways is part of humanity.

Seaweed is also a great soil enhancement.

After washing it a couple of times they would chop it up and then put it in the compost bin to mix in with the other compost. The proof, they often grew award winning roses.

Yeah I didn't even think about that. And unfortunately since almost all of the plastic comes from India China and fisherman fishing in international waters. There's no way to lower the amount of plastic. The fisherman don't care they are on the poverty line just trying to survive. China doesn't care about anything but money India doesn't care about anything but money (speaking of the Chinese government and the India government not the people of China and the people of India who I am sure care very much). So until some system is put into place such as paying those fishermen who are on the poverty line you know 5 or 10 cents per plastic bottle or plastic item they pull out of the ocean and you know much more for bigger plastic items no one is going to clean any of it and it's just going to get worse.

We are doing this in Puget Sound using kelp aquaculture and calcifiers in several places. It’s good for so many species and the amount of positive species interactions is great!!!

Do we need 50% more food than we produce currently, or than we consume? Because a lot of food gets wasted, usually before it even gets to your fridge

That increase % takes into account the fact that there are some terrible logistics and use of food right now

Good for people's living in poor areas on yhe ocean though. Like places they sell yhe dwindling fish they can find, feed their kids something else without vit A, and get blind kids.

True, and also reducing meat consumption alone will give you enough food for a few billion more people. A very large portion of our arable lands is used for animal food, whether grazing or growing corn/etc for cows and pigs.

The intro is misleading, every soil can be regenerated, small and medium-scale regenerative farms would be more efficient and productive in nutrients and variety than current industrial farms, all those people in the cities would benefit by having relationships with those smaller farms during peak planting and harvesting times, creating greater connection between cities and their surroundings.

Seaweed used in cattle feed cuts their methane emissions by over 90 percent.

@@belbal5004 google for red seaweed reduces methane in cattle or something to that effect. Its a type of red seaweed and yes it is true. Some environmentalists made a company and are trying to monopolize it though.

Humans: *Grows more crops to feed livestock than humans* Humans: *runs out of space" Humans: You know growing plants in the ocean seems easier than eating less beef. Edit: Yes the technology is amazing but not mentioning this is infuriating.

83% of agriculture land is dedicated to animal farming, sure we are running out of land and there is no way to sustain that. Think about it how many kilos of plant based food does an animal need to produce 1kg of meat?

Seaweed can also be added to cattle feed, and it stops them from producing methane in their digestive systems--a greenhouse gas much worse than CO2, at the scale industrial farming operates on. This needs to be scaled up, ASAP.

I remember being on an outing with primary school kids and the teacher made sure to let them know that words like gross would not be tolerated to describe things and that better words such as interesting could be used instead. Your choice of words to describe shellfish is, well, you can put it together I'm sure. You can do better!
