In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Chad Nelson, CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, to catch up from our last conversation on the changes and growth that the Surfrider Foundation has undergone over the past five years.  Chad and I discuss how Surfrider has not only doubled in staff but continues to grow an army of volunteers that represent the foundation well across the US and even into Canada.  We also discuss how Surfrider collaborates with other organizations to help get good environmental policies passed at local, state, and federal levels.  Connect with Surfrider Foundation: Website: https://www.surfrider.org/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Surfrider Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Surfrider Check out all of our episodes on www.speakupforblue.com Want To Talk Oceans?
