Public Invited to Free Zoom Presentation on Solving Climate Change with the World’s Mightiest Seaweed
Learn how the startup company Symbrosia is working to solve climate change by reducing livestock methane emissions with seaweed that's grown sustainably in Hawaii, at a free Zoom presentation offered on Wednesday, May 4 at 5:30 pm. The presenters will be Daisy Stock and Kylie Tuitavuki of Symbrosia.
Leading the R&D team at Symbrosia, Daisy Stock investigates novel approaches to A. taxiformis strain selection and development. Prior to joining the team, she worked in a NASA laboratory investigating the origin of life through isotopic analysis of meteoric material.

In addition to her work at Symbrosia, Kylie is a current graduate student at UH MÄnoa investigating the long-term sustainability of indigenous cropping systems and their potential for revitalization that would support local food systems.
