Ep 32: The Disruption of Seaspiracy & The Race Against Time to Debunk the Facts

Seaspiracy hit Netflix on March 24th, and I don&apost think even the vegan community were prepared for the huge impact it was about to have. Trending across the globe and hitting #1 on Netflix in the UK, the power of Seaspiracy cannot be overstated. An outpouring of news articles, statements in response, and a &aposdebunking&apos of the facts presented soon followed. Today I&aposm discussing Seaspiracy, the impact that it&aposs had and some of the criticisms it&aposs received.

In today&aposs episode:

- Responding to: "What about Indigenous fishers? Seaspiracy shouldn&apost be telling Indigenous communities not to fish."
- Responding to: "It’s not right to tell the consumer what to do, Seaspiracy is gaslighting you."
- Aquaculture Alliance & false statements.
- What has the pushback from the industry been like so far?
- Going in depth on the Earth Island Institute/Dolphin-Safe conversation.
- Facing speciesism: caring  about dolphins more than tuna.
- Explaining the great Pacific Garbage Patch statistic.
- Did Cowspiracy force environmental organisations to change their messaging, and will Seaspiracy do the same?
