In this week’s episode I sit down with the incredible Peter Hammarstedt, Director of Campaigns for @SeaShepherd.

Sea Shepherd’s sole mission is to protect and conserve the world’s oceans and marine wildlife. Sea Shepherd stands at the critical line between survival and extinction for countless marine species targeted by illegal ocean exploitation. Discover how illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing worldwide is bigger than the illicit drug trade, and it is devastating the ocean. Learn about the dangerous missions Peter and the other crew undertook in the name of protecting our marine life. How much of our oceans are actually protected? Where is the illegal fishing happening? Is there any way to sustainably consume fish? What species should we be avoiding? Find out what challenges face our oceans today and what we can do on a personal level to help. Discover how harvesting krill for use in Omega-3 supplements is stripping an important food source from marine life. If you’re able to help out by donating to the Sea Shepherd mission, visit seashepherdglobal.org. Your support goes directly to defending, conserving & protecting the oceans.
