Invasive species: Danger or untapped potential?

Published

2 years ago

on



Should we beat them, or eat them? In this episode of Ocean Calls, we’re embarking on a journey to unravel the mysteries of invasive species in EU waters. They unsettle the delicate balance of marine ecosystems, so what can we do about them?

Approximately 20 new non-native fish and plants are discovered in European waters annually, with some 70% of them found lurking in the Mediterranean.

We call on the expertise of João Canning-Clode, Chairman of the Invasive Species Expert Group at ICES, the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea and Voula Karachle, an expert on invasive species from the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research.

At the end of the episode, you’ll hear the story of Amjad Almatni, a young Syrian activist from a drought-affected region in Syria, recounting the magical moment when he saw the ocean for the first time in his life.
