Every time you mention a new country, i'm liked, that's another stamp. 90% of the time it's someone who is working in an area that hat needs something and can't afford it. How important is water proofing and what you do? It's very important. I mean, wet lands, rain fore sands like that. Yet's just got to be, it's got to be very well built and engineered to be able to withstand that.
THIS IS UPLIFTING, I PROMISE. And it might just make you switch careers. As a bookend to last week's Oceanology episode, Conservation Technologist Shah Selbe chats about saving the planet with some well-intentioned technology. Wind turbines, solar cars, and all the ways in which sensors, drones, recycled smartphones and real-time data reporting can help conserve species, spaces and communities that are threatened. Hear inspiring tales of travel, art, adventure and putting engineering to good use from a former rocket-science turned professional do-gooder.
Also discussed: crocodile astrology, fishing vests and hippo power displays.
