In today's episode, I'm chatting with Andrew Lewin, Host of How To Protect The Ocean podcast and undisputed marine conservation superman! In this episode we discuss Andrew's unrelenting ocean advocacy, colourful manta rays made of recycled flip flops and why he'll never stop talking about the ocean.This episode was recorded soon after the passing of Wallace J. Nichols, marine biologist, author and founder of the Blue Mind movement. A huge source of inspiration for me and so many others, I was so grateful to Andrew for holding the space to reflect on J's inspiring work. Something Old: 'I grew up in Ontario, Canada, surrounded by the great lakes but definitely not the oceans. When I first really discovered and fell in love with the ocean was watching a Jacques Cousteau documentary...'Something New: Angelo Villagomez decolonizing ocean conservation / Asha de Vos (founder of Oceanswell) protecting blue whale populations from ship strikes in Sri LankaSomething Borrowed: The Salmon People podcast (ocean justice, indigenous rights). ‘There’s a lot of ways you can take a piece of content like that, that’s so good. A lot of times I’ll take what people have said and I’ll start that conversation’Something Blue: 'I look just near the back of the boat and I see these little swirls of water as you go by...and it's like a little trance that I go into.'Andrew on Instagram - @howtoprotecttheocean @podcastandrewSomething Blue on Instagram - @somethingbluepodcastLily on Instagram - @usourearthFind Andrew's app: 'The Speak Up For Blue' (Speak Up For Blue Media) on the App storeIf you enjoyed the episode and are able to share with a friend or leave a review, I'd be super grateful.The hope with this podcast is to bring a tiny dose of blue wherever in the world you're listening, so would love to hear what you think.Sending you all the ocean love,Lily xx Hosted on Acast.
