How will climate change impact sharks? With Dr Jodie Rummer and Carolyn Wheeler

For the FINAL episode of season 1, I am joined by fish physiologists Dr Jodie Rummer and Carolyn Wheeler to talk about a the most-asked-about subject of 2021: climate change, and its impact on sharks. This topic has been playing on a lot of people's minds this year, and we've had a lot of questions since the start of the pod about how sharks and the oceans will be affected, and what WE can do to help. So buckle in - we're headed on a rollercoaster ride into the stormy seas of the climate crisis. But fear not! Guiding us on this journey are the brilliant Jodie and Carolyn, who study the effects of climate stressors and other human-driven issues on fish, including sharks and rays, in tropical waters, and we talk about their pretty sobering findings. On the way we meet Edna the epaulette shark, visit some picturesque shark nurseries in French Polynesia and learn what it’s like to observe coral bleaching in real time…

We also end the episode on an optimistic note for 2022, as we talk about how humans still have a real chance to make positive changes, slow climate change and help safeguard our favourite elasmobranchs.
