"Let's dive into it" 😉

When you realize the ocean is about as rich as The UK or France

Every morning I walk along my local beach, often picking up few pieces of rubbish, mostly plastic, knowing that it may eventually pollute and harm the ocean. At a macro level it is a relatively insignificant gesture. However, imagine if more of us, say the 3 billion dependents on the blue economy, were to account for their own waste? It's a small world and we each have our part to play

Shirvan's hometown Baku: Can I be in the thumbnail. Shirvan: No

Corruption is the challenge that plagues countries from being innovative...

Everything’s better down where it’s wetter, or so I’ve been told

"And the ocean is full of plastic 🎶"

Meanwhile on South China Sea, chinese militias are dumping chemicals near Spratly islands (280 nautical miles near Palawan) to deter Filipino fishermen.

For once a sponsor that matches the video!

I always love these types of videos. With recent studies re-affirming that global population is likely to stall or even decrease significantly by end of century will affect things like global sustainability and care for our shared resources such as our oceans

We will never cooperate enough to make it sustainable.

Who over-fishes the most? China. Who depends most on trade? China.

That Jean-Jacques Cousteau quote really got me in the end. Props to this amazing channel.

You produce such great content. Your maps are second to none.

Excited to hear my capital city get a shout out at 4:05 , probably for the first time in this channel. Great work Shirvan, as always!!

can you talk about the effects of the Syrian war and the Libyan war on the Mediterranean?

I find it refreshing that ecological themes appear to be of growing interest to geopolitics!

"The voice of the sea speaks to the soul of geopolitics" 😍😍

ah yes a calming video before i watch my missile test

it is like the earth only gets more dismal and complicated day by day

Please God give them more subs! This is the most unbiased informative channel I know

The ocean, our very origin.

The ocean does so much for us, we really need to make sure we look after it

Of course, the elephant in the room (China) is overfishing. No one really knows how long and under what conditions does it take to allow fish to reach mature size.

Terra mater is a dope channel

Ocean Thermal Energy Converters can help to breath new life back into the oceans while also converting the solar heat stored there into electricity, nutrients and life in the ocean. Hawaii, India and Japan have systems like this that are currently operating

SHI-SHA-SHERVAN! Just leaving a comment to push conentent. I will watch later.

1:17 Uzbekistan: -"Man, I don't know about that one."

The problem to ecological sustainability is the greed for resources rather than the need.

Ah, this one takes me back to watching SeaQuest as a kid...

What's most frustrating to me is that humanity CAN overcome these problems but won't because those in power don't care and there won't do anything about it.

And another Blockbuster video from The Caspian Report!

Valuable video that needs to be seen by as many current and future politicians & business leaders as possible!

Fascinating take on the green vs blue economy. I never thought about how existing interests are so entrenched when it comes to what we think of as a green economy vs the open opportunity an international blue economy presents.

This video just makes me really anxious because of my lack of faith in humanity 😥

I love the maps that you use! Very interesting

1.25 speed is perfect for this great narrative.

It makes me sick how people just use the ocean as their trash can and how oil companies are so lack luster with their operations in the oceans and when they spill millions of gallons of oil into the oceans they never get properly punished for their faults. It’s disgusting.

I should leave a comment for the algorithm. These types of videos are what I like to sea.

I gave Terra Mater a watch. Some good stuff :) thanks for the recommendation. Also, hope you're doing fine! Protests in Azerbaijan are making some headlines these days.

Good stuff as always Shirvan. May I suggest the CANZUK union as a possible subject for a future video. Thanks.

Landlocked country: Are we boned? *YES! YOU ARE BONED!*

Thank you for telling us about Terra mater! Its a great channel

Last time I was this early, the blue economy was the blue start up.

Lab grown seafood may be something of a game changer.

Simply,lovable for ur analysis

The continued availability of advanced firepower of the U.S. Navy protecting the sealanes will be the future of the "Blue Economy." 🐬

Always bringing good stuff

Protecting nature in general is at utmost importance. Therefore, the introduction of plastic tax, carbon tax, etc. is inevitable, whereas tax reduction for green projects is much needed. Nuclear energy could support the transition for as long as necessary, but should be sidelined once renewable energy sources could be utilised. More in Enlightened Europism - A citizen's demand and proposal for comprehensive and immediate reforms.

Colonize the moon, mars, the surface of the ocean, and the deeps at the same time

The voice of Shirvan speaks to geopolitics.

ok i am gonna join this is superior content

Great video, as always!

**happy Poseidon noises intensify**

I would love to see your take on the geopolitical consequences of the recently published projections of global population decline/shift!

Yes, keep the poorer nation poor and rich nation rich.

Awesome explanation about the blue economy.

People often forget that our planet really is a water world. It should be called "Ocean" and not "Earth". We're talking about a natural domain that does not belong to makind; we are not adapted to live in the ocean realm.

That dude and his reports ... priceless! Keep it up mate!

You are living in Baku, tell us about your local geopolitical conflict with armenians, what happened, what's the reason of all of this?

What a pleasant surprise to see this specific subject on this channel. Something I know a lot about, and look forward to seeing more advanced concepts on these issues someday here 😊

Love how you ended the video with the Jacques Cousteau quote. As usual good video

This is way too optimistic on the speed of innovation. 'In 10 years' forever.

Great channel. Could you make a video about geopolitics of Bulgaria?

must reduce fishing to 10% of current levels. seafood is nice but totally unnecessary to our nutrition.

Sinking all Chinese fishing boats would be a good start to fixing this problem.

For the algorithm ✊🏻😁

good stuff

The ocean is an invaluable resource.

Ghislaine Maxwell was one of those heavily invested and involved in trying to monopolize the Oceans with her "Terramar Project" a so called "charity" aka money laundering and bribery front, her ties to Isreal suggest it could be part of their own overall strategy for the Oceans.

At the beginning of this year the IMO and its members (incl all global operating cargo carriers ) adopted a much anticipated new standard of low-sulphur fuel that will reduce the co2 emission and pollution drastically from those big ocean ships, the cost is $ 10-12 BN across the industry just in 2020. This will be passed to the customers on a TEU/Ton level initially, until market level adjusts. It also increased the share of the even 'cleaner' LNG powered ships, as it's ROI becomes more feasible.

We need your videos more often!

hello, make a video about the geopolitical goal of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Пожалуйста)

Thank goodness the USA has easy access to the Pacific and Atlantic ocean. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Portugal 🇵🇹💕💕💕💕💕

Nothing compares to your fine work. Keep it up.

Perfect graphics and illustrations, insightful analysis, great narration.....The best channel to watch👍

My problem with these grand theories of global cooperation is always, why should small developing economies limit themselves by entering into agreements that dont benefit them in the short or medium term, why plan for the future if your people is poor, sick and starving now, why not buy more fishing boats, sell mining rights and oil drilling, rich, developed countries dont plan to shut down their economy, only "switch over" to a greener economy and never if its going to shrink their GDP

The continued deployment and advanced firepower of the U.S. Navy protecting the sealanes will be the determing factor in the "Blue Economy." 🐬

Brilliant topic again. Thanks Shirvan.

Excellent video mate

I'm a member but I cannot see where to see all the map he is talking about, can anyone tell me how to access it please

Excellent upload and an interesting subject. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us!

Innovation is the key.

It's not just the seas and oceans that we need to care for, but the rivers as well. In my country, Egypt, for example, the Nile River is very polluted as a result of the government's lack of law enforcement. It's depressing to see piles of trash in the Nile because this is our only source of life and it's a vital part of our economy.

Great content, thank you!

We don’t have to protect nature to survive but form it appropriately!

Might actually be the best value payed sub on the platform

Can you make a video about tensions between Armenia and Azerbaijan?

Great content as always!

Can you make a Video about geopolitics of the Arabian Maghreb it seems to be one of the regions your channel didnt deal with yet, would be very interesting tho. Non the less gotta holla at you for your very interesting and detailed content. I enjoyed watching everyone of your vids 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I skip ads on every video except Caspian Report videos.

The Earth was not made to accommodate humans, the Earth came first and we humans were merely an afterthought. We can't view the Earth's resources as infinite anymore, we need to be more sustainable and that does include the oceans.

world leaders need to be taking notes from this video...and this whole channel, honestly That being said, do you think sustainable aquaculture would be a good solution for overfishing? Maybe that could be a sector that boosts the economies of poorer coastal nations as well. The ocean is really the most important and most overlooked environmental dilemma that we face as a species

Regulations ultimately hurt the economy if not destroy it in long run. The only solution to this trend is localized sustainable development and reliance on trade for very limited goods.

Is it just me who likes to eat while hearing words like economic growth?😅

A very dangerous balance.

Humanity will run out of clean, potable water far sooner than we will run out of oil. It is to our detriment as a species and a civilisation if better management of our surroundings (or environment, another word meaning the same thing) is not prioritised.
