Erik Olav Gracey is a Sustainability Specialist at BioMar (Aarhus, Denmark). BioMar is a world leader in aquaculture feeds, with operations in Europe, Asia, South and Central America and Australia. Erik brings Life Cycle Assessment and other environmental impact assessment competency to the ProTerra Stakeholder Council. At BioMar, Erik works with fish and shrimp farmers to reduce their environmental footprints through Supply Chain sustainability optimization. This work requires in-depth knowledge of the environmental and social impacts of different global commodities. Importantly, BioMar is leading several projects to improve the geospatial resolution of “hotspot” environmental impacts related to agricultural/marine commodities, such as biodiversity loss, climate change, freshwater consumption, and phosphorus depletion, amongst others. As an avid outdoorsman and humanist, Erik is passionate about using the best available science to balance human development with natural ecosystem requirements. Erik holds a B.A. in International Business from Pacific Lutheran University, an A.S. in Atmospheric Sciences from Bellevue College, and an MSc in Industrial Ecology (Environmental Systems Analysis) from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
