David Suzuki & Sarika Cullis-Suzuki

David Suzuki and his daughter, marine biologist Sarika Cullis-Suzuki, join Tony for a wide-ranging conversation about family, science, and environmental advocacy. Sarika shares her journey into marine biology and her new role as co-host of The Nature of Things, taking up the mantle after David’s retirement from the iconic series. Together, they reflect on the show’s legacy, the challenges of overfishing, and the intricate balance of ocean ecosystems. They open up about the influence of family on their work, the complexities of public criticism in activism, and the emotional weight of raising children in an uncertain world. Throughout the conversation, they explore Canadian identity, the power of community resilience, and the urgent need for collective action in the face of climate change.
