267 - Benefits of Biodiversity with Dr. Joey Bernhardt

The Fisheries Podcast

This week Kadie chats with Dr. Joey Bernhardt (@JoeyBernhardt) an integrative ecologist and an Assistant Professor at the University of Guelph. Joey's research, much of which has been centered around global change, seafood and human nutrition, aims to deepen our fundamental understanding of the drivers of biodiversity change and the implications of these changes for human well-being. She also serves as a Senior Research Associate at the Centre for Ecosystem Management (@CentreEcoMgmt), where her work on open data and biological responses to climate change will contribute to research efforts aimed at understanding the ecological interactions and processes necessary to sustain ecosystems in the Great Lakes basin.

Main point: Following your passions and joy is the most effective way to contribute to climate solutions.
