Recent laws that were made in the US regarding abortion made me think that we as citizens in our own countries need to pay attention to politics and how our elected officials vote on particular issues, especially issues that affect the Oceans. It doesn't matter what side of the political spectrum you are on, your elected officials should represent the values of their constituents. We need to monitor environmental issues closely. In this episode, I discuss how we can do this to make sure laws involving environmental issues that are dear to us don't go the opposite of what we want.  Take a listen to the episode and share your experiences on watching key issues that are important to you.
