Episode notes

Some of the concepts, I made this movie, the great simplification earlier this year. Some of the concepts were things that you coined in our writing. It's slow in rolling out, but it may be the equivalent of the Chickslob Asteroids smacking down the dinosaurs. We've got essentially free energy by using the oxygen in the atmosphere and stuff we can dig up and burn. They're only retroactively fossil fuels if you burned them and that's a dumbass thing to do with them.

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.

About DJ White:

DJ White is a co-founder of Greenpeace International and founder of EarthTrust. He has played a leading role in protecting dolphins, whales, sea turtles, and countless other marine animals, including being the driving force behind the transition to more dolphin-friendly tuna, stopping widespread use of ocean drift nets in the 1980s, successfully stopping a national dolphin drive kill, and breaking the deadlock in capping the Kuwait oil fires.
