Rowing Oceans Solo and Sowing Seeds Together with author, ocean rower, and activists Roz Savage

James Navé here. It’s my pleasure to welcome ocean rower and environmental activist Roz Savage to the Twice 5 Miles Radio microphone. In 2007, when Roz Savage stepped on the Sheridan Opera House stage 8,750 feet above sea level at the Telluride Mountain Film festival, I had never considered that you could row solo across the Atlantic Ocean. I soon learned that you could indeed row solo across the Atlantic Ocean if you have enough grit and determination like Roz. During her talk, I learned she had plans in the works to row solo across the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Roz and I had excellent conversations during the film festival. She told me that she believed that her act of rowing over 15,000 miles with 5 million oar strokes, over 500 days in a 23-foot rowboat, would give her the sea-creds and public attention to promote her more critical leadership goal of global climate activism for the rest of her life. Roz said, ” “not only can we all make a difference — we all have to.” This show was aired first on WPVMFM, 103.7, Asheville, North Carolina.
