INVESTMENT ANGLE
Today, 60% of the world's population lives in coastal areas.
The number of coastal dwellers continues to rise, but the climate crisis raises concerns for our health, safety and well-being. Yet communities can seize several under-exploited opportunities that the ocean offers to adapt: renewable wave and tidal energy, drinking water supply, etc.
However, these innovations need to be integrated into the socio-economic fabric of coastal communities, taking into account unique cultures, histories, and environments. A one-size-fits-all approach won’t stick.
By drawing knowledge from ecology, sociology, economics and technology, we can develop new coastal industries that respect the environment and meet the needs of communities.
Creative Capital is currently building an alliance to bring together innovative companies and organizations around a hydrosocial approach. Hydrosociality examines water management from a social, cultural and political perspective, and recognizes that water issues are not limited to purely technical considerations.
