Resilient Earth Radio

Welcome to RESILIENT EARTH RADIO where we host speakers from the United States and around the world to talk about critical issues facing our planet and the positive actions people are taking. We also let our listeners learn how they can get involved and make a difference.

Hosts are Leigh Anne Lindsey, Producer @ Sea Storm Studios and Founder of Planet Centric Media, along with Scott & Tree Mercer, Founders of Mendonoma Whale & Seal Study which gathers scientific data that is distributed to other organizations like NOAA (National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration).

A focus of this podcast series are Nature-Based Economies that help rebalance the Earth and raise awareness about the value of whales, elephants, mangroves, seagrass, the deep seas, waterways and forests - our natural world - towards that rebalancing. This addresses the effects of our own human-caused climate change, and what we can do about it - from simple steps to grand gestures!

Global experts, citizen scientists, activists, fisher folk, and educators examine and explain ciritical issues facing our planet and actions people are taking to mitigate and rebalance climate. We discuss the critical role of carbon storage, and how it is essential for all life forms on earth.

This awareness could lead to new laws, policies and procedures to help protect these valuable resources, and encourage economies around them to replace the existing exploitation of oceans, forests, and animals.

Taking positive action, and getting people involved, that's our goal.

Jaime Jahncke Director Point Blue & ACCESS, Adjunct Professor San Francisco State University's Estuary & Ocean Science Center

Jaime Jahncke works to increase the pace, scale, and impact of climate-smart conservation in the ocean. Strategic priorities that he leads in Pont Blue’s Ocean Conservation Initiative include developing science and tools to improve fisheries sustainability, guide ocean zoning, and build support for ocean conservation. He supports and manages a 16 staff group, 20-25 seasonal volunteers, and 8-10 graduate students each year. He also works collaboratively with partners at federal and state agencies, academia, and environmental NGOs to conduct applied science and implement solutions to reduce threats to wildlife and ensure sustainable human uses. Additionally, he serves as science advisor to several federal and state agencies, and NGOs.

He was born and raised in Peru with a BS in Biology at Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina (1992) and a PhD in Biological Sciences at the UC Irvine (2004).
