The Role of Whales in Carbon Sequestration

My guest today is Dr. Heidi Pearson! She's a marine biologist and someone who had no idea I was going to ask about when whales attack rich people boats. But she was more than ready for the question! Her paper on whales and the carbon cycle caught our eye here, and the interview was definitely more about that but let's face it, we all want to know about the boat attacks first and foremost. But after that, we talk about animal intelligence, evolution, climate change, and so much more! Dr. Pearson was a delight, don't miss this interview!   Are you an expert in something and want to be on the show? Apply here! Please please pretty please support the show on patreon!
