I am thrilled to have as my guest, Carl Safina, the Founding President of The Blue Ocean Institute at Stony Brook University, where he alsoco-chairs the University’s Center for Communicating Science. Carl Safina is responsible for bringing ocean wildlife into the modern mainstream of environmental Conservation. Dr. Safina co- founded the Marine Fish Conservation Network for U.S. Fisheries Reform and the Ocean Wildlife Campaign for International Reform.  Risking his science career, he helped lead campaigns to ban high-seas driftnets, re-write and overhaul U.S. Federal Fisheries Law, use international agreements toward restoring depleted populations of tunas, swordfish and sharks, achieve passage of a United Nations Global Fisheries Treaty and reduce fishing-gear drownings of seabirds and turtles.  Dr. Safina holds a PhD in ecology from Rutgers University and honorary doctorates from Drexel University, Long Island University and the State University of New York.  Please join me for what promises to be an exhilarating conversation with an ocean wildlife expert.
