Businesses are starting to recognise the potential of the
emerging blue economy.
Synopsis: Every first and third Tuesday of the month, The Straits
Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from
biodiversity conservation to climate change.
A healthy ocean is one of humanity’s greatest defences against
climate change, and businesses are now starting to recognise the
importance – and potential – of the emerging blue economy.
From sustainable aquaculture and farming practices, to offshore
renewables and sustainable shipping, the ocean is becoming a
frontier for innovation and investment.
The involvement of the private sector can bring in much-needed
funding to ensure that the oceans are managed sustainably.
But what are the opportunities in this emerging sector, and is
there a tension between profit-making and conservation? Tune in
to this episode to hear more from Dr Alfredo Giron, head of ocean
at the World Economic Forum.

economy?
