Summary

If algae blooms go out of control, they can cause devastation to aquatic life and destroy coastal communities. This is typically addressed through chemical-based techniques, which are highly effective yet lead to other environmental problems. Lawrence Field presents an ecologically safe way to eliminate algae blooms, which features the use of ultrasonic tech. He joins Corinna Bellizzi to share how certain levels of frequencies are targeted into the ocean to get rid of harmful kinds of algae without negatively impacting wildlife and humans. Lawrence also explains how algae respond to rising sea temperatures and how they plan to push their ultrasonic tech into the mainstream.About Guest:Lawrence Field is CEO of WaterIQ, a provider of modern ultrasonic algae mitigation solutions, proven across a wide range of problem areas. He brings 30 years of experience in investing and operating service and manufacturing businesses. In 2008, he led the buyout of Tulsa Inspection Resources, where his pipeline customers were governed by public utilities commissions and they utilized ultra sound technology for their pipeline inspection process.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lawrence-field-0406591b9Guest Website: http://www.wateriqtech.com Guest Social: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAgFbQHazxfSSaAxrncJoNgLove the show?

0:00.0	my vision for the future would be that we would have an environment that wouldn't have
0:07.0	nutrient pollution. But in the next 50 years or so, we think of ourselves almost like a hospital
0:16.3	because excess nitrogen and phosphorus isn't going away, even though there's trends to try to reduce
0:23.9	both of those, but because of real estate developments, because of cattle ranches, because the
0:29.6	farms, stormwater runs into rivers, runs into reservoirs that ultimately wind up in irrigation ponds at vineyards or orchards,
0:41.0	but also wind up in wastewater treatment plants and drinking water utilities, industrial plants.
0:48.8	Welcome to Care More Be Better, a podcast for people like you who care about the social impact of conscious companies
0:56.3	and everyday heroes.
0:58.6	Hear inspiring stories from those who put people in planet before profit and personal

1:22.1	including out-of-control algae blooms and the devastation that they can actually impact on environments
1:29.4	and on coastal communities. We'll talk about technological solutions and including a really cool
1:36.6	ultrasonic algae removal system. We're going to learn how this compares against chemical-based
1:42.5	processes and what it really excites me about this conversation
1:46.8	in particular is that we can move from fear of things like red tides and mass fish die-offs to a
1:55.3	feeling of empowerment. And so while we're doing the cleanup efforts of trying to get our
2:00.0	waters bluer, our rivers
