Especially their flavor. I\u2019m titling this scene \u201cthe life of seaweed\u201d. I have chosen minutes (1-5). In this scene Chef Jacob Harth explains that \u201cbasically any of the seaweeds are edible. The only time you want to avoid it is if the water quality is poor. Anything that could be a potential hazard with the water will be a hazard for the seaweed, for sure.\u201d And goes on to show us how he harvests the seaweed. As he\u2019s harvesting it, he brings up a lot of how different the types of seaweed and kelp are and how their textures can get tattered because of the tide coming in and out. This scene really compelled my learning about how the different factors in the ocean influence the quality of the seaweed by really explaining the different types and textures of the seaweed and how outside factors in the ocean can affect the quality of the seaweed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"3D Ocean Farms with Bren Smith of GreenWave\" width=\"676\" height=\"380\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jInyeTkpSAE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> The film I chose was \u201c3D Ocean Farms with Bren Smith of GreenWave\u201d. Min (0-3:30) in order to answer the question of what is meant by regenerative agriculture and how can it guide us to food sustainability? I am titling this scene \u201c3D Farming + creativity= food sustainability\u201d. As I watch Bren Smiths video, he discusses his 3D ocean farming technique which he says \u201cto use the full water column to in order to grow vertically to grow a mix of shellfish and seaweeds for local food but also fertilizer, animal feed, biofuel and mitigating climate change and creating blue-green jobs at the same time.\u201d He then goes on to talk about his idea for the vertical farming system he labels \u201c3-D Ocean Farming: The Last Deadliest Catch\u201d. Which is essentially this amazing vertical farming system that allows them to grow shellfish vertically and get as much use out of that spot (only 20 acres!) in the ocean while growing restorative species. He then goes on to discuss his kelp season and how they have a negative carbon footprint and the other thing he grows on the same system. He describes it as he owns a process not a property right, he is protecting rather than privatizing the ocean. This scene compelled my learning about regenerative agriculture and how it can guide us to food sustainability by listening to Bren describe how his system he\u2019s worked so hard to make his vertical farming system and how it is mitigating climate change and not taking up as much space in the oceans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Wk 7: Geoduck and Seaweed<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"758\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-1024x758.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-1024x758.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-768x568.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-945x699.jpg 945w, https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2-600x444.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/wintertastingswithnakiah2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/640\/2021\/03\/seaweed1-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by Nakiah<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/evergreen.idm.oclc.org\/login?url=https:\/\/search.alexanderstreet.com\/view\/work\/bibliographic_entity%7Cvideo_work%7Cmind-mhs-3Y0dX6wBVY?account_id=11199&amp;usage_group_id=104123\">Three Feet Under: A Duckumentary<\/a>, Evergreen Library streaming service (Dir.

Direct effects on the seaweed population include mortalities due to increased growth rate and cover of other algae which are not harvested, such as filamentous green algae and the brown seaweed, Fucus vesiculosus, which outcompete the desired species, and die-back due to increased predation.  <\/li><li> one challenge faced by farmers in these remote areas is low 2016 United Nations 6 profits due to high shipping costs.
