SUMMARY:Diving Deep on the Blue Economy
DESCRIPTION:​In New England\, it’s easy to take the ocean for granted – especially in the summer\, when we’re all ready to cool off. But the ocean is a hotbed for commerce and climate change. Global supply chains are dependent on the weather patterns that affect shipping lanes; ports are increasingly under strain with rising sea level rise and coastal erosion; and communities rely on the resources – both for energy and food – that this carbon sink provides. \n​Climate Salon is teaming up with Fidelity Private Shares\, Mintz and Massport for an event that will go deep on solutions to answer — How do we strengthen the commercialization pipeline for New England’s blue economy innovations?
