TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH KELP!
Thursday, May 29th
6:30pm – 8:00pm
Wilton Library
After watching the 30-minute documentary, Kelp!, Leigh Shemitz, PHD, President of SoundWaters, will share what it is like to grow kelp locally, just a few miles away. SoundWaters has farmed kelp in Long Island Sound for several years, and Leigh will explain what it takes to grow kelp, including the timing and process and the challenges and successes. She will discuss the environmental benefits of kelp farming: how it can improve water quality and provide key nutrients for upland farms in our region.
About “KELP!" the documentary: Under the looming shadow of ecological breakdown, a young filmmaker searches for a surprising super-solution that can help build a better future for humans and the planet. On an epic adventure aboard the good ship Gleaner through Britain’s rugged coastline, they discover the power of kelp to regenerate our coasts, empower communities, and even replace plastic.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Leigh Shemitz is the President of SoundWaters, where her responsibilities include setting strategic direction, developing programs, creating partnerships, overseeing operations, and managing the SoundWaters staff and budget. Dr. Shemitz’s extensive background in environmental science provides enormous depth and breadth as she helps SoundWaters fulfill its mission to inspire future generations to create a better world through joyful learning on Long Island Sound.
