The hosts agree that it would be a nice summer break to stick with some more fun stuff this week and lay off the heavy (well mostly).

Stefan and Saryn discuss the bigger picture of a story about seaweed farming for sustenance and other 'new' industries in the age of change. We talk about other possible changes in a climate changed world and new industries and social expectations based on these changes.
