Listen now
Description
Today on the Wild For Change podcast, we will be speaking with Sara Newton, Head of Content and Creative Strategist for Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Sara is also one of the main cinematographers for the organization. For over forty years, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has been patrolling the seas to help coastal and island governments from illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing. With marine life facing a multitude of threats, Sea Shepherd is a formidable force on the open seas.  In this podcast, we will learn more about Sara's specialized role within Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, what life is like living out at sea, and the various campaigns they have launched, such as "Stop The Grind" in the Faroe Islands, their efforts to protect the Vaquita porpoise in Mexico's Upper Gulf of California, and their monitoring of waters in Antarctica due to the exploitation of krill, a major food source for whales and penguins. We will also learn how to support Sea Shepherd Conservation Society in general and contribute to the fight against the exploitation of krill. Your support can make a major difference in the lives of marine animals. Website: http://www.wildforchange.com Twitter: @WildForChange Facebook: /wildforchange Instagram: wildforchange
