Decade Collaborative Centre for Coastal Resilience 4 Episodes Jun 29, 2026

Green Tides is a science podcast that explores coastal resilience, climate change, and the future of the world's coasts. Across five episodes, it follows the science, people, and ideas shaping more resilient coastlines, covering topics like sea-level rise, stronger storms, coastal erosion, pollution, and environmental pressure. The podcast features stories from communities, researchers, and institutions, and discusses ocean literacy, the Digital Twin of the Ocean, island communities, environmental justice, and co-designed solutions. It aims to turn complex ocean science into understandable and actionable stories, emphasizing that protecting the coast means understanding change and building resilience.

Community Resilience in Island States - Ep. 4 Jun 29, 2026 1117 What does coastal resilience look like for island communities living on the front line of climate change? In this episode of Green Tides, we travel from the Caribbean to the Western Pacific to see how island states face rising seas, stronger storms, coastal erosion, coral reef degradation and rapid urbanisation, often all at once, in what scientists call multi-hazard systems. We dig into why the

Digital Twin of the Ocean: The New Frontiers of Coastal Science - Ep. 3 Jun 22, 2026 994 What if we could test the impact of a storm before it ever reaches the coast? We step inside the Digital Twin of the Ocean: a living, virtual replica of the real ocean, continuously updated with satellite data, coastal sensors, ocean models and artificial intelligence. We explore how digital twins, AI, high-performance computing and forecasting systems help scientists and decision-makers anticip

Educating for Coastal Futures: Training the Scientists and Citizens of Tomorrow - Ep. 2 Jun 15, 2026 1395 How can education protect the future of our coasts? We unpack why ocean literacy is a core pillar of coastal resilience for scientists, citizens, communities, policymakers, and young professionals facing climate and ocean challenges firsthand. We follow learners from Brazil to Nigeria, the Philippines and beyond through DCC-CR programmes such as Co-Growth, COMPASS and the OceanTeacher Global Aca

Why Coastal Resilience Matters: A Historical and Systemic Perspective Jun 8, 2026 1003 What does coastal resilience actually mean? And why does it shape the future of every coastline on Earth? In this opening episode of Green Tides, we trace how coastal resilience moved from a niche term to a global priority, from the 1992 Rio Earth Summit and Agenda 2030 to the UN Ocean Decade. Then we get concrete, exploring how sea-level rise, coastal erosion, pollution and the Law of the Sea (U

Trailer Jun 2, 2026 105 What if the coasts we love are changing faster than we think? In the trailer of Green Tides, we set off on a journey into coastal resilience, where climate change, rising seas, intensifying storms and accelerating erosion are reshaping beaches, cliffs, ecosystems and coastal communities around the world. We meet the people, science and projects working to protect what we love asking how coastal
