EOC 202: Love The Oceans

Oceans are the lifeline of our blue planet and they cover nearly ¾ of the Earth’s surface. And on June 8th we celebrated World Oceans Day. Who doesn’t love the ocean right? Beaches, the lovely breeze, the feel of sand beneath your feet, the wildlife. So, wildlife film-maker and presenter, Aishwarya Sridhar talks to Francesca Trotman, managing director and founder of Love The Oceans. Love the Oceans is a non-profit marine conservation organisation working in Jangamo Bay, Mozambique since 2014. LTO is working to protect and study the diverse marine life found here, including many species of sharks, rays and the famous humpback whales. They use research, education and diving to drive action towards a more sustainable future. Their ultimate goal is to establish a Marine Protected Area for the Inhambane Province in Mozambique, achieving higher biodiversity whilst protecting endangered species. Francesca Trotman holds a Masters in Marine Biology. Francesca has always had a passion for marine life and is an emerging leader in the ethical tourism space. An avid diver since the age of 13 with a keen interest in all aspects of marine life, Francesca is particularly passionate about sharks. Results orientated, she constantly encourages people to consider conservation in everyday life and take a greener approach to modern living. As the founder she likes to stay close to the research and community, overseeing the majority of programs on the ground in Mozambique. Let the sound of waves and ocean breeze lift your spirits as you listen to this podcast from your home!! Love The Ocean Social MediaInstagram: @lovetheoceansTwitter: https://twitter.com/lovetheoceansFacebook: https://facebook.com/lovetheoceansorganisationLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/love-the-oceansWebsite: https://lovetheoceans.org/ Music used: Bumbling Bumbling by Pictures of the Floating Worldhttps://freemusicarchive.org/music/Pictures_of_the_Floating_World/Bumbling/Bumbling Join private conversations with top authors and access exclusive bonus content!
