Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast Captain Paul Watson

 In this episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast, we speak with Captain Watson about two new ships added to the Neptune's Pirates fleet, the Bandero and the Nemesis.  The Bandero was recently acquired (with the help of John Paul Dejoria) to help confront the Japanese Whalers in the Southern Ocean, while the Nemesis was acquired (with the help of Dale Vince) by the Captain Paul Watson Foundation UK team.  Paul also mentions the initiative by Sea Shepherd France to create an orca whale sanctuary in France for orcas that are in captivity.

In this episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast we get the chance to catch up with Rob Read.  Rob gives us insight into changes coming to Operation Bloody Fjords for 2024.  Operation Bloody Fjords is an effort to end the grindadráp (the slaughter of pilot whales and other dolphins) in the Faroe Islands.  Rob makes it clear that the CPWF UK is moving to new strategies in order to achieve this goal.  Past missions have focused on documenting the grinds, but this year will be different.

In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast we have the pleasure of speaking with Rob Read from CPWF UK and Captain Paul Watson.  Rob and Paul talk about the urgent need to stop Kristján Loftsson from killing more endangered fin whales this year.  While Loftsson still needs to secure a permit from the Icelandic government to kill whales, Rob and Paul point out that Loftsson's immense wealth and political power often means that he gets what he wants.  Unfortunately the one thing Kristján Loftsson wants is to cruelly harpoon fin whales so he can sell the meat to Japan.  Fin whales are the second largest mammal on earth and are key contributors to our global ecosystems.  We need to save every fin whale we can! Rob and Paul also make the announcement of Operation Ice Storm - which is the CPWF's new campaign to make sure no fin whales are murdered.
