Lautaro Parra is a free-diver instructor in Sydney, but this chat is all about his experience as a commercial diver on salmon farms in Chile. In particular, we discuss the working conditions and ecological impacts that he encountered. This chat will blow your mind, and make you think twice about eating salmon ever again.

This is the first of a two-part chat with the second (and final) part released next week.

Jeremy and Brad discuss some of the latest science on ocean trash, published last month in the Nature Sustainability Journal. We talk about what's in it, where it's coming from, and what we can do about it.

Khory Hancock (aka 'The Environmental Cowboy') is back for his second appearance on the Ocean Protect Podcast. We take a deep dive into the science of regenerative agriculture and deep ocean seaweed farms - and their potential for carbon sequestration/ 'drawdown' to help mitigate climate change.

This is a two-part conversation, with the second (and final) part released next week.

Cigarette butts are a very big little problem - with some 8 Billion littered every year in Australia alone. Butts are also NOT biodegradable and are actually plastic, and can take up to 15 years to break down - albeit not before leaching some very nasty chemicals into the environment and/ or ingested by wildlife. After witnessing the devastating impact of discarded cigarette butts on beautiful locations around the world, Shannon was inspired to resign his corporate role and dedicate himself to No More Butts. We delve into this big little problem and Shannon's plans for "a butt free environment".

This is the first of our two-part chat with Shannon, with the second (and final) part released next week.
