  • Resumen

  • What is one of the most effective ways to raise awareness for ocean conservation?

    Go viral.

    In 2015, Dr. Nathan Robinson was filmed removing a plastic straw from a sea turtle’s nose—the video now has over 125 million views on YouTube. Four years later he also recorded the first footage of a giant squid - otherwise known as the mythical ‘Kraken’ - in US waters. This story made headlines in over 400 international news sources including the front-page of The New York Times.

    Joining me on the podcast this week is the Marine Biologist and Science Communicator himself.

    Dr. Robinson and I discuss his passion to protect the environment, the viral event that spearheaded the plastic straw movement, and the power of science communication.
