Warren Bravo is the co-founder and CEO of Green Relief: a licenced producer devoted to bringing innovation and social responsibility to the medical cannabis field through the use of aquaponics. By combining aquaculture (raising fish) and hydroponics (soil-less plant growth), aquaponics organically simulates a balanced ecosystem in which plants can thrive.
