I had the pleasure of spending some time with some of Calgary’s top chefs and the Vancouver Aquarium’s Ocean Wise program. Just because we can’t see the depletion of ocean stocks doesn’t mean it’s not an issue.
Join me as I discover what is happening in our oceans and what we can do about it in my article, “Becoming Ocean Wise” over on my Print Publication & TV appearances section.
