And nearly all of us use fossil fuels, plastics, chemicals and products from intensive agriculture. Ocean-acidification is still, just, in the green, and so is aerosol pollution and dust. Three are based on what we take from the system: biodiversity loss fresh water land use. billion humans – nearly all of them poor.

If the sourcing is done carefully, fake fish also should be devoid of the mercury and microplastics that can stem from ocean plastic pollution. Seaweed, on the other hand, which makes up New Wave’s shrimp-mimic, sequesters carbon and reduces ocean acidification.

The four are moving quickly to examine the tiny invertebrates, keeping them in plastic bins filled with ocean water to ease their stress. Created by Fernandes as part of his doctoral dissertation, the 3D-printed plastic holders act as temporary living quarters for dying coral. The structure is known as a “crib.”
