Show Notes

Today, we are sitting down with Christian Shaw, Founder and Executive Director of Plastic Tides. Christian and I have lots of laughs discussing how the idea came to him to use his passion for sports to raise awareness for plastic pollution, why Bermuda was chosen as their first expedition site and what they found while there, being a part of the microbead plastics ban in 2015, how Plastic Tides has grown and evolved since it’s inception in 2014, non-profits versus for-profits, advice for those that want to combine their two passions to make an impact, and so much more!
