From Lab to Life: We Need to Talk About Fish

Have you tried to figure out whether the fish you eat is sustainably sourced? At least 1 in 5 fish caught in the global ocean is a product of illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing—one of the main threats to the health of the ocean.

In this episode, part of our “From Lab to Life” series, we hear from Grantly Galland, who supports The Pew Charitable Trusts’ work on fisheries around the world. Grant tells us about his previous career as a fish biologist and researcher and how he traded in his wetsuit for a business suit to support policies leading to more sustainable fish stocks and to protect the marine environment from overfishing.
