The Sounds of Science provides a comprehensive account of a
large-scale scientific experiment with globally operating seafood
corporations headquartered in North America, Europe, and Asia. It
describes how scientists worked to identify these, world’s
largest seafood companies, and how their disproportionate powers
were mobilized in a coalition of companies called SeaBOS (Seafood
Business for Ocean Stewardship), aiming to provide global and
science-based industry leadership on ocean stewardship. As invoked
by the cover art (Flow, 2020) by world-renowned creative director,
Kashiwa Sato, the experiment is creating a small wave of change
that sits within a larger wave, supporting and generating larger
movements towards improved stewardship of the planet. A new
direction for the private sector is emerging, and new priorities
are flourishing. The book explores how corporations, guided by
science, can be part of the solution to the biosphere challenges.
Written in collaboration with international experts on
sustainability, ocean ecosystems, fisheries policy, and
corporations, this book explores the mechanisms leading to the
evolution of cooperation, and the barriers to address in order to
engage in collaborative learning, corporate change and novel
science. It offers tangible advice to scientists on how to work
with the private sector for a better, more sustainable world. The
Sounds of Science is an important resource for scientists
interested in engaging with the private sector. Corporate leaders
and policy makers will find this book useful for understanding,
collaborating, and working with the planet to reach global
sustainability goals.
