In this episode of the EcoVybz Podcast, host Khadija Stewart sits down with Dr. Theresa Rodriguez-Moodie, environmental scientist and CEO of the Jamaica Environment Trust (JET), for a powerful conversation on Jamaica’s environmental journey. Dr. Moodie shares how her connection to the ocean shaped her career, leading her from consultancy into frontline advocacy. She reflects on the urgent need for state accountability, public access to environmental information, and meaningful community participation in governance.
The discussion delves into the threats posed by deep sea mining, especially given Jamaica’s role as host of the International Seabed Authority. Dr. Moodie critiques extractivist models that compromise marine ecosystems and calls on the Jamaican government to uphold its constitutional duty to protect the environment. Released in honour of June as Ocean Month, this episode is both a celebration of Jamaica’s rich natural heritage and a rallying cry for justice in ocean stewardship.
