This episode of The Green Interview features Alanna Mitchell, an award-winning Canadian author, journalist, and speaker on environmental science, conservation, and sustainability. After nearly two decades as an investigative journalist, Mitchell perfected her gift for decoding the complicated language of science and translating it into the emotional narrative of everyday life. Her latest book, Sea Sick: The Hidden Crisis in the Global Ocean, interweaves scientific concepts with firsthand accounts and fieldwork stories to examine the ecological crisis facing the world's oceans—and how we're altering temperature, salinity, acidity, ice cover, and the very life within them.
