Nate Haganz: I would like to introduce my longtime friend and colleague, DJ White. DJ is a co-founder of Greenpeace International and started EarthTrust.org 40 years ago. He was responsible for the tall, which stands for through an alien lens in our books because he does think in an alien way. What I find so fascinating about DJ is he thinks differently than most people.
Show Summary:
On this episode, Nate is joined by Eco-interventionist and long time friend DJ White. DJ is not necessarily a household name, but has been instrumental in successful environmental interventions - primarily for the oceans - for the last four decades. The list of his behind-the-scenes accomplishments is long, but today he joins Nate to describe how to be effective in change-making and outline ways that current activist efforts could be improved. He also shares his own profound experiences with some of Earth’s most intelligent creatures and how these cetacean friends shaped his life’s work.
