Who is Captain Paul Watson:
Paul Watson is the original captain of the meddlesome ship that polices the high seas for illegal whalers and dolphin killers. He's the guy who rowed his little inflatable boat between a harpoonist and family of whales. He travels to the frozen hinterlands of Canada to protect those fuzzy baby seals from being bludgeoned. At age 9 (!), he walked trap lines, releasing caught animals; at 19 he co-founded Greenpeace and later founded Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (www.seashepherd.org).
~He's been featured on:
~60 Minutes
~The Today Show
~CBS and NBC news and many more
Paul Watson’s deep convictions about the preservation of the earth and its species are matched by an equally strong belief that personal convictions mean nothing unless one acts on them.
Paul inspires action through example, educates through experience and leaves audiences with a profound understanding of their own power and ability to make a difference in the world.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear:
“the most intriguing public figure of our times”
