This week on The St. Louis Podcast, we’re joined by Bert terHart, a man whose life has been shaped by the oceans. With advanced degrees in mathematics, physics, and oceanography, Bert has dedicated much of his career to understanding the critical role our oceans play in climate regulation, marine ecosystems, and pollution control. But his journey didn’t stop in academia—he transitioned into software engineering, developing tools that have aided healthcare professionals across the globe.
Beyond his technical expertise, Bert is an accomplished blue-water sailor, having logged over 45,000 miles at sea. His deep connection to the ocean fuels his passion for environmental advocacy and the power of citizen science. In this episode, we discuss his incredible experiences on the water, the intersection of technology and environmental responsibility, and what the future holds for our oceans.
Tune in for a fascinating conversation about adventure, innovation, and the urgent need for ocean conservation!
