Captain Paul Watson Interview (ePub)

Paul Watson, born in Toronto, is one of the most important environmental activists in the field of marine conservation worldwide. In 1972, Watson co-founded the environmental organization Greenpeace. In 1977, he founded the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, an international, direct-action, non-profit marine conservation organization dedicated to preserving biodiversity and the marine ecosystem. In addition to poetry, most recently Desperate Mythologies (2020), Watson has published pathbreaking books as an activist, including "Ocean Warrior: My Battle to End the Illegal Slaughter on the High Seas" and "Dealing with Climate Change and Stress". In 2012, his fight against poaching cost him his freedom when Interpol issued a red notice at the request of Costa Rica and Japan. In March 2019, Costa Rica dropped all charges against Watson who returned to the United States.-
