Dr. Enric Sala is a former academic who grew tired of simply writing an “obituary” for the ocean. He now is the National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and founder of the Pristine Seas project. He is also the author of The Nature of Nature: Why We Need the Wild, in which a quarter of the proceeds goes to ocean conservation. He talks with Mark today about the environment and how we are all connected—much like the current pandemic.

Hear how:

• COVID is a wakeup call for humanity—the time to take action is now
• Everything is connected—from the environment to our health and the economy
• Starting an environmental “Manhattan Project” is a must and it only requires three things

Listen to this episode to learn more about how the environment is connected to our everyday lives and what we can do to help restore it.
