Episode 4
Have you wondered recently, what else might be in the fish you’re eating? In Episode 4, “What Lies Beneath,” we check in about the state of Fiji’s oceans with marine biologist Andrew Paris. He walks us through the ways that marine life is under threat - from micro plastics to people dumping car batteries in the water - and we also discuss some possible solutions. We love learning about the daily realities of field research for him, and it’s especially interesting to hear all the ways as a Fijian researcher, how him and his team honour communities and build traditional knowledge into the preservation work.
