  • Amber Sparks/ Emily (Callahan) Hazelwood Co-Founders Blue Latitudes Foundation + LLC. Marine Scientists. Explorers. Entrepreneurs. | EP 23
    Blue Latitudes as a marine environmental consulting company with a non profit foundation understands the often-complex environmental issues that face the offshore energy industry and has developed relationships with both federal and state regulatory agencies that are based on a shared goal to manage offshore resources in a way that is both environmentally sustainable and fiscally responsible. Some of the Earth's greatest opportunities for conservation lie at the intersection of industry and the environment. The dynamic duo at the helm of this planet forward operation, marine scientist Amber Sparks and environmental scientist Emily Hazelwood, (both made the Forbes 30 under 30 list in the energy sector and met at Scripps Institute of Oceanography), have seen the human demand for ocean resources increase incrementally, and have laid solid plans to broaden the dialog on traditional ocean conservation practices to find ways to use our oceans without using them up!  Their credo is profound; to elevate the traditional concept of ocean stewardship by uniting government, industry and the community to work together to conserve our oceans! In doing so,  their foundation and consulting business, strives to explore innovative solutions to traditional marine conservation challenges, by uniting science, policy, and communications to develop sustainable, creative and cost-effective solutions to manage the environmental issues that surround the offshore energy industry. Today, they work with government and industry around the world to develop RtR strategies and, using remotely operated vehicles, literally diving into the deepest depths of the ocean to evaluate the marine ecosystems found on deep offshore energy structures.

  • Madison Stewart - Shark Girl. Nautical Videographer. Shark Conservationist + Activist. Filmmaker. | EP22
    Madison Stewart, a.k.a. Shark Girl, also known to her close friends as “Pip or Pippy” (dad’s a pirate, mum’s a hippy), is no accidental ocean activist. In a way she was born to represent the ocean. From the early age of two, she and her family were living on a yacht sailing the waters of Australia’s Gold Coast and the Great Barrier Reef.  At the 12 Madison became a certified Open Water diver in the sharky waters of Byron Bay at Julian Rocks, and at age 14 she had picked up an underwater camera for the first time. Then at 16 she decided to dedicate her life to the preservation and protection of sharks after learning a shark fishery inside the Great Barrier Reef could legally harvest 100,000 sharks a year, and has been working tirelessly as an activist ever since.  She is probably one of a very few people who refer to sharks as "adorable, and credits Peter Benchley, his book and the Spielberg film “Jaws" for being an inspiration and reminder how important it is to make sure sharks are not seen as scary creatures or a threat to humans, but should be preserved and honored as one of the oldest and most important apex predators in the ocean eco-system.  Stewart is also an Ocean Guardian in the Australian documentary "Blue.”, was featured in Rob Stewart’s “Sharkwater Extinction”,  and at the age of 24, she was named Australian Geographic Society Young Conservationist of the Year for her anti-shark finning work.  Her non profit, The Hooper Collective, aims to inflict change and shed light on laws exploiting sharks, change the human perception of them, and fight the trades decimating shark populations around the world, while improving the quality of life for humans at threat from these animals.

  • Captain Paul Watson - Founder, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Co-founder, Greenpeace. | EP 18
    Canadian born Captain Paul Watson is a pioneer of environmental activism who has helmed the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society for over 40 years. The fierce eco-warrior and founding member of Greenpeace remains one of the most vital voices in the conservation movement. Though he has been condemned, arrested and placed on the Interpol watch lists for his interventionist style, in the current climate crisis, his approach feels appropriate to the level of emergency.
     
    In 1977, he founded the Sea Shepherd Society, which is globally known for using guerrilla tactics to shut down illegal whaling, sealing and other wildlife killing at sea. In recent years Capt. Watson and Sea Shepherd has led the charge for removing hazardous gill-nets where there has long been an issue with extreme by-catch marine-life deaths.  Notable is the activity in the Baja California/ Mexico region, with the Vaquita Whale rescue mission, a near extinct and coveted cetacean species. Today the movement has independent entities in over 20 countries working together on direct-action campaigns around the world with local governments and other NGO’s  Capt. Watson is also a prolific author, speaker and subject of a recently released documentary film WATSON.

    Richard Yelland: DIRECTOR + PRODUCER, Chief Creative Officer at Curtis BirchJeremy Black: Executive Producer with Ryan Black, Co-Founder’s Sambazon Acai 
    Seeding Change: A Documentary AboutBusinesses & Environmental Sustainability
    Twenty years ago, a young group of social entrepreneurs joined a movement to change the world through the pursuit of an alternative economic model and practice of conscious commerce. “Seeding Change” is about "triple bottom line" businesses that consider the social, environmental and financial impacts of their companies and address some of today’s most challenging issues. This film encourages viewers to be part of the solution by voting with their dollars, shopping smart and supporting the brands that align with their values. Never have the stakes been higher, whether it's climate change, soil degradation or plastic pollution. Triple bottom line companies provide an immediate opportunity to be a part of the solution.  Richard Yelland has been fortunate to witness the power of impactful documentaries and how this form of story-telling can change paradigms and even history.  By telling this story, with the help of Jeremy and Ryan Black and Sambazon, consumers will be empowered to purchase from those companies that have solutions built into their ethos and business model as an example of how we can make immediate and positive change for our planet.
