06 Sep 2021Disruptive Change ft. Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii00:46:09

"If your bathtub is overflowing, is your first reaction to get the mop or turn off the tap? It's the same with plastic." We sit down with Monica Mclenigan of Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii to learn more about the work this nonprofit is doing for our oceans. You'll learn about their work and their new program with ghost nets, if we need individual or corporate change first, how composting is linked to ocean health, incineration, and what makes SCH so effective at making disruptive change - and how you can too.

31 Aug 2022How to Save the Ocean: Part 100:28:34

"Is it actually too late to save the ocean? It's too late to expect someone else to." In this solo episode, Carissa sits breaks down some extremely high impact ways to actually save the ocean that you can start doing today. We simplify two large-scale conservation topics you should know about: 30x30 Marine Protected Areas and Deep Sea Mining, and then go into individual (but collective) actions you can take to live in a way that is ocean-minded. You won't find any discussions of metal straws here, but you will leave feeling less confused about how to conserve, protect, and take care of our blue planet.

29 Nov 2023Everything you need to know about COP28 ft. Hailey Campbell 00:54:01

“You have to go in with a plan, and we need to work together.” COP28 begins November 2023, with outcomes and climate commitments shared by mid-December. Consider this your COP crash course. This week we sit down with Hailey Campbell, a youth climate organizer who has dedicated most of her career to pushing for climate solutions internationally, especially during the annual Conference of Parties. We talk all things COP28 including what it is, what the zones mean, how young people can get there, what negotiations are a priority this year, and what a “successful,” COP28 would look like.

"National Geographic would have paid to be here." Carissa and Alex sit down to reflect on their bucket list trip to the San Juan Islands to see orcas, and all the conservation lessons we can use as templates. We share our incredible experience seeing transient orcas in the wild, watching them hunt, and the deep knowledge the naturalists had. We also discuss some sustainability tourism approaches the island had, and how whale watching economies can be used to accelerate ocean protection.

12 Nov 2021The Power of Media and Cetacean Captivity ft. Natalie Parra 00:46:00

"With so many different forms of media and the accessibility of information, people can start questioning what they have been told and acting on what they think is right." On this episode, we sit down with Natalie Parra to discuss the importance of media in conservation. Natalie recalls how she got into conservation and how her organization Keiko Conservation got started and the tangible results that come from media campaigns. Later in the episode, Natalie describes her experiences in Taiji, Japan working with Dolphin Project, the transition from seaquariums to rehabilitation and wildlife centers, her work with Oceanic Preservation Society, and the future of conservation media.

04 Apr 2023A lifetime of activism ft. Doorae Shin00:45:36

“If weʻre compassionate and care about the environment and future generations, we need to ask ourselves if we are living every day in a way that allows our values to shine through? And voting.” We sit down with one of the most inspiring people Iʻve had a privilege to work with, Doorae Shin, an activist for a lifetime and incredible environmentalist. We recount her journey in advocacy and activism, starting from her early years and first win - instate the first campus-wide styrofoam ban at the University of Hawaiʻi in 2014. She opens the curtain to how transformational policy gets passed, including her personal story of how local elections decided by less than 100 votes ultimately resulted in passing bill 40 in 2019, a widespread plastic ban for Hawaiʻi and one of the most comprehensive single use plastic ban in the nation that she was apart of. We discuss what mature activism looks like, how to sustain optimism, and how insidious industries use misinformation to stop policies that protect our planet and environment. She shares how her journey in nonprofit organizations lead her to going freelance to build wealth and progress many issues, just like me, and conclude with her goals for herself and advice for early-career change makers. Her story reminds me of the my favorite quote by Margaret Mead, “Never doubt that a small group of people can change the world, it is the only thing that ever has.”

21 Feb 2023How to study dolphin & whale behavior ft. Dr. Adam Pack00:29:34

"Seek out opportunities to explore our ocean as much as you can." Carissa interviews her friend and colleague Dr. Adam Pack, a researcher who has been studying dolphins and whales in Hawaiian waters for the last twenty years. We worked on the same team during the September 2022 National Geographic expedition studying cetacean vocalizations in Hawaiian waters. What I love about Adam is how much I can learn from his generation of ocean discovery, and his dedication to science communication. While this episode is more focused on cetacean science, it truly conveys where the field of marine mammal acoustics is at this time. Come along with us while we interview Adam about his expedition research objectives, his career, all things dolphins and whales, and nuggets of wisdom he has to share for aspiring marine mammal biologists.

09 Aug 2022Collaboration > Competition00:29:47

"We don't want to perpetuate these systems of exploitation in marine conservation, we want to make sure that everyone feels included." In this episode Alex and Carissa, co-founders of The Conservationist Collective, sit down and discuss how the competition mindset inhibits real change in marine science and conservation. We discuss examples from our own experience, and unpack systemic ways this outlook exploits workers and creates barriers to accessibility in the field. We also dive into the leaders we've seen do the opposite, how to unlearn this scarcity perspective and put the collaboration mindset into practice. We believe everyone has a place in saving the ocean, so let's actively rebuild an equitable career field that uplifts everyone else - from the inside out.

25 Jul 2023Plastic Free July ft. hot takes and lessons 00:20:50

"PFJ is so deeply rooted in privilege and access, sustainability was rooted out of survival and low income folks have been practicing this for so much longer." Plastic Free July is attractive to sustainability-minded folks for a number of reasons, but I wanted to highlight all the lessons Iʻve learned along the way so you donʻt have to learn them the hard way - all from my backyard (sorry for wind!) This episode is full of easy information on the systemic challenges to a plastic free society, and the ways plastic pollution is connected to capitalism, climate, human health, infertility, consumerism, and more.

07 Feb 2023Blue Mind Living ft. Pioneer Dr. J Nichols00:50:10

"Get in the water." Blue mind is the area of research and understanding of the ways that water makes us more focused, centered, calm, present, creative, and content. Dr. Nichols pioneered this concept through his book, Blue Mind Theory, as part of his career as a marine biologist and conservationist. We sit down for a lovely conversation about his journey, the different types of water that can support blue mind, his process as an innovator of this space, and how we can all find our own blue mind personal and unique to us.

07 Mar 2023How to change the climate social fabric of society ft. Peter Kalmus 00:51:38

"I cannot go on with the knowledge of whatʻs coming without doing everything I can to stop it. I canʻt look away from this, and frankly, I donʻt understand people who can." Join us for a conversation with Dr. Peter Kalmus, a NASA climate scientist, also known as the climate activist who chained himself to Chase Bank in LA in 2022. Peter shares exactly how to make the climate movement more powerful than the fossil fuel industry, and what it means to change the climate social fabric of society. We touch on what climate disobedience is, how the media is falling short on communicating climate, climate disinformation and his personal journey with activism, ecoanxiety, and staying motivated. We answer questions like: How can we hold the folks responsible accountable? What is the best thing to do to take action? How do we co-create a resilient climate movement, and de-escalate divisions inside it? I loved hearing Peterʻs perspective, especially his own approach to attacking social norms and what he personally gains from his own activism experiences. 

Keep an open mind, and join the climate party when youʻre done.

06 Dec 2022Plant Corals, Save the World ft. Dr. David Vaughan00:35:51

“Young people might think they canʻt get a job in marine conservation, but they CAN. Now is the time.” Dr. David Vaughan is a coral restoration expert, founder of Plant a Million Corals, and passionate conservationist. He is responsible for developing coral micro-fragmentation by accident, which is an extremely effective coral restoration technique that is widely used today (including in Hawaiʻi). He is on the pursuit to plant coral reefs at scale and bring coral restoration to the masses, and he just released his new book, Secret Life of Corals, to do just that. During our lovely conversation he shared his journey, thoughts on ocean conservation approaches, his opinion of social media, and his best advice for young people. 

This was such a lovely conversation, I immediately donated to his foundation afterwards. If you feel the same, I encourage you to support his work in some way, too.

05 Nov 2021Pioneering Marine Debris Research ft. Jenna Karr of CMDR00:34:10

"So often, when you think of scientists, you think they have all these concrete answers. But when it comes to plastic research, we have only answered this tiny percentage of what is really going on and there are still so many unknowns." We sat down with Jenna Karr with the Center of Marine Debris Research (CMDR) to learn about the ground breaking work being conducted in regards to plastic pollution. On this episode we discuss ghost nets and what they are made of, eco-anxiety, and the female dominated, Hawai'i-based lab that is literally pioneering the methods of marine debris research.
