43 - Saving Our Oceans with Sea Shepherd Activist Alfonso Gomez


Listen Later

On this weeks episode of The VedgeTalk Podcast, we chat with Sea Shepherd environmental activist, Alfonso Gomez.
Alfonso works as a documentary film maker in Mexico City. He applied to be on Sea Shepherd after capturing a subject wearing one of their shirts, and this caught his interest.
After going vegan, this seemed like the perfect next step.
In this conversation we covered:
- Alfonso's childhood in Mexico City.
- Living in New Zealand at the age of 16.
- Struggling with the idea of choosing a career at the end of high school.
- Starting multiple small business ventures as a way of trying new things.
- Filming a documentary in Chihuahua, Mexico in a bid to reconnect with his home country.
- Life on Sea Shepherd. What they do. How they help our oceans. What they eat on board!
- Statistics regarding plastic in our oceans and how that is linked to the fishing industry.
Hope you enjoy the show!
