Guys. Rose Santana (@scie.co on IG) is such a boss! She’s super smart and knows more about marine pollution that I would ever care to know. This interview is fairly science heavy, but stick with us - it is a discussion worth having!

We get into some great topics such as: 

• Why collaboration is key in both science and ecotourism
• Tips for grad school
• The importance of mentorships
• How to get more funding for conservation
• Why diversity is invaluable in science
• Why climate change IS a social justice issue
• And so much more!

Bottom line: Conservation needs funds! It doesn’t matter how you get it! (Well, I mean, yes I know there are ways to get funds that are pretty unethical…so it does matter…but just listen to the episode, ok?!)
