About this listen

 In Episode 8 of Public Health Uncoded, host Dr. Norma Patricia Muñoz, a distinguished marine biologist and educator, delves into the largely unknown issue of Sargassum, a brown seaweed, and its impact on climate and health. This emerging problem, widely unrecognized by the general public and the climate field, has been diligently researched by the POP Movement team, led by experts Dr. Pachauri and Dr. Norma. They shed light on the multifaceted nature of Sargassum, a threat spreading from the Caribbean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean, affecting more than 20 countries. Even the world's most pristine beaches are losing their allure, marine life is suffering, and coastal communities are largely unaware of the impending impact.
