Summary

Cold water oceans do not always get the same attention as coral reefs and tropical beaches, but they are full of incredible life, beauty, and ecological importance. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean , Andrew Lewin speaks with Kirsti Burnett about why cold and temperate marine ecosystems deserve more love, curiosity, and protection. From Nova Scotia's eelgrass beds and coastal inlets to blue sharks, mola mola, leatherback sea turtles, North Atlantic right whales, and cold water kelp forests, this conversation celebrates the ocean environments that many people overlook. The episode also explores why local knowledge, science communication, and personal connection are essential for helping people care about the ocean close to home. Join Kirsti and I (and the Pisces Oceans Team at 1440 Bedford Highway, Bedford, Nova Scotia, on June 7th, 2026, from 9am-11am to talk all things oceans.
