Captain Paul Watson, world-renowned expert on the state of the oceans,
co-founder of Greenpeace, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society
and Master and Commander of 177 Sea Shepherd Voyages enforcing laws to
protect the earth's marine wildlife and wilderness habitats, will give a

Some of the points that will be covered during the lecture:
* what it meant to be present at the birth of the modern-day environmental
movement
* how the "dolphin safe" tuna label came to be, and how efforts to kill it
were turned back
* how Canada's seals were saved with vegetable dye and why the fight to Save
them had to be restarted
* how direct intervention can make the difference between extinction and
survival of species
* why the oceans are dying
* how a committed individual can change the world

There are some AWESOME lectures/papers posted on the GPI Conference web
site:

*I would highly recommend Ray Anderson's speech "On Responsibility in the
Private Sector" - READ IT - it was so MOVING! Ray gave this speech in
Antigonish for the GPI conference and at a breakfast for political, academic
and business leaders in Halifax.
