Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is the world's leading, independent non-profit organization dedicated to ocean research, exploration, and education. Their scientists and engineers push the boundaries of knowledge about the ocean to reveal its impacts on our planet and our lives.
Mark Abbott, President and Director of the Wood’s Hole Oceanographic Institution, sits down with colleague Dr. Greg Stone to talk about the institute’s role as one of the world’s largest private organizations in ocean research. Mark leads the conversation with how WHOI has adapted their mission to address the issues that are affecting today’s critical climate crisis. From the fragility of the Gulf Stream to the Institute’s exploration of the ocean’s Twilight Zone, Mark provides us with amazing insight on why WHOI is leading the world in tracking and sampling changes in the world’s oceans.
Greg Stone has been an advocate for ocean conservation, sustainable industry, and marine research for decades. Spreading these ideas requires conversation and collaboration if we want environmental sustainability. He currently serves as Chief Ocean Scientist and board director for DeepGreen Resources. He is responsible for finding sustainable ways to extract minerals from the seafloor of the Clipperton Fracture Zone that will aid in global transition to renewable energy.
