Join Sustainable Woodstock for a live Q&A with Captain Paul Watson, marine wildlife conservation and environmental activist. Watson was one of the founding members and directors of Greenpeace. In 1977, he left Greenpeace and founded the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting and conserving the world’s oceans and marine wildlife. In 2022, Captain Paul Watson continues his fight for marine wildlife conservation with the new Captain Paul Watson Foundation, which carries on Captain Paul Watson’s effective agenda to defend life in the sea through a unique strategy of aggressive non-violence and intervention against illegal operations exploiting life in the sea.
This Q&A follows a free screening of the film “Watson,” which features Paul Watson and his lifelong dedication to sailing the globe keeping our oceans and oceanic inhabitants safe.
