Scaling coral reef restoration

Show Notes

In this episode of Upwell, we chat with Sam Teicher, the founder and Chief Reef Officer of Coral Vita and the winner of the Earthshot Prize. 

In the interview, we discuss the state of coral reefs today and the critical importance they play for ocean health, how Coral Vita is working with a wide variety of stakeholders to scale restoration of reefs, and what support is needed to support a thriving ecosystem of environmental entrepreneurs.

You can find Sam on Twitter, and you can learn more about Coral Vita on their website, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Take action with Sam
