Presenters Bron and Dr Beach talk to coastal paleontologist Ben Francischelli about Naarm’s very own giant seabird dinosaurs known as ‘pelagornithids’, the largest flying bird that ever existed; Dr Nigel Bradly, CEO of Envirostrat, NZ, explains an exciting development in a huge aquaculture start-up program that not only regenerates algae in the waters off the Coromandel peninsula, but has all the hallmarks of a huge new sustainable seaweed industry; and Dr Beach reports on a new insight into water bears - or tardigrades as they are officially known - and their incredible ability to withstand environmental extremes.
