Andrew Sharpless, Oceana CEO and author, will speak about the world’s food supply from the oceans. To take place at the New England Aquarium's IMAX Theatre.

Oceana CEO Andrew Sharpless and author of The Perfect Protein will talk about how with population growth expected to reach 9 billion by 2050, we will need more wild fish than ever to feed us, particularly since 1 billion of the poorest people rely on seafood as their main source of protein.

He looks at anchovies, mackerel, and sardines are used to feed salmon and other farmed fish but could also feed millions inexpensively.

He argues that if 25 coastal nations in the world take three steps, we can save the ocean and feed the world.
