Ep. 263 Ocean Talks with Jeremy McKane | Planet Positive Series

Jeremy McKane is an Artist with a passion for the environment. His focus has been directed on Ocean issues for several years. He's an active Explorers Club Member and CEO of OCN.ai, an autonomous network of marine robots that automate enforcement at sea. In Jeremy's own words, "my passion is the oceans and I feel that we don't give them the focus that they need. I thought about this years ago when I first walked up on one of the most polluted beaches I had ever seen. The sad part about it was that there was not any people for hundreds of kilometers yet the evidence of mankind was everywhere. Some of my work its pretty evident that I'm focusing on marine life but you might wonder what place people or kids have to do with conservation. My hope is that we introduce kids and adults not just to the ocean but water. Teach them how to swim, how to snorkel or even dive! Once you step into blue, you are forever changed. Every second breath of air we take in right now comes from the ocean. Why don't we do ourselves a favor and start making efforts to protect what little we have left. Because it's definitely worth it!"
