Send us a textIn mid-December 2024, Denmark released Captain Paul Watson (co-founder of Greenpeace, and founder of Sea Shepherd Conservation Society) after five months of captivity in an apartment-like incarceration setting in Greenland, when Denmark ultimately declined to extradite him to Japan for a matter about which Captain Watson asserts his innocence. Fairfax, Virginia criminal defense and DUI lawyer Jonathan Katz three weeks after Captain Watson's release had the privilege to spend an hour with him on our Beat the Prosecution podcast, covering such topics as risking detention and prosecution for what we deeply believe in; the international law limiting whaling and sealing; preparing for and winning at trial (he has never been convicted); and his uncanny ability to be non-angry. Remarkable is Paul's confirmation that he does not get angry, other than when he expresses it with his pen. Non-anger is very vital to beating the prosecution. Paul has been prosecuted numerous times, but all his trials have resulted in acquittals. Listen to how that resulted. Paul Watson and Jon Katz both eat vegan (with Paul motivated heavily by ecological reasons, and Jon being primarily motivated by nonviolence), and know members of the American Indian Movement (with Paul having been a medic during the Wounded Knee action, and Jon peripherally meeting AIM members through his peace teacher Jun Yasuda, a close friend and supporter of the late Dennis Banks). Jon recommends reading Paul's autobiography Hitman for the Kindness Club, and listening to his podcast entitled Captain Paul Watson Foundation. More about Paul and his foundation's work is at PaulWatsonFoundation.org. Watson is one of the films about him. Donations to his foundation can be made here. One of Paul's previous organization's ships was named the Steve Irwin, who supported Paul's approach for animals. Those approaches include ramming whaling ships without causing injury to others, applying dye to seals to make their skins unmarketable, using stink bombs, and releasing animals from captivity. Paul magnificently sums up his work with this phrase that also is all about how to beat the prosecution: courage, passion and imagination. This podcast with Fairfax, Virginia criminal / DUI lawyer Jon Katz is playable on all devices at podcast.BeatTheProsecution.com.

“… tied up at the pier was this all-black pirate ship with the Jolly Roger flag at the bow. It was menacing as hell, and I walked up to the superstructure, and there on the on the outer bulkhead, was all these skulls and crossbones. They were the names of all ships these guys had sunk or rammed on the high seas.” In 2005, adventure journalist and best-selling novelist Peter Heller, spent six weeks on board the eco-pirate ship Farley Mowat, fighting the Japanese whaling fleet. Led by Captain Paul Watson, the founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, their mission was to disrupt, ram or sink the harpoon boats and factory ships that hunt and kill hundreds of whales each year. Some people called them eco-terrorists, others hailed them as heroes. Battling Class 7 and 8 gales, and 35-foot-high seas, this is their story. You'll have to make your own mind up.

A healthy whale is a big profit-center just swimming out there for the taking. The sea has very little enforceable law. It's all very watery. The Japanese whaling industry wants one of the great earth-defending heroes of our time to go to prison for “throwing a stink-bomb” at a Japanese citizen on one of their massive death ship/factories. The murdered whale is conveyor-belted up into the hold of the ship and the products from the whales body are spit out the other side as consumable items. This is an old COLONIAL HELL and can't happen to a defender of life of the stature of Captain Paul Watson's. We believe that ultimately, the immorality will prove a harpoon-dulling shield for these gangesters.  

In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast, we get the rare opportunity to talk to Captain Paul Watson from prison in Nuuk, Greenland.  Paul was arrested on July 21, 2024, and he gives us an idea of what life has been like for him since his arrest. For those who support Paul, it is simply nice to hear his voice as he navigates through the bogus charges brought against him by Japan.  Paul's next court appearance is on Wednesday, November 13th.  Hopefully Greenland and the government of Denmark will do the right thing and release Paul!Support the showhttps://www.paulwatsonfoundation.org/https://shop.paulwatson.com/

Whale Wars Star and founder of Sea Shepherd, Captain Paul Watson, has been imprisoned since July in Greenland! The anti-whaling hero has applied for political asylum in France as he fights off attempts by Japan to get him extradited to that nation where he could end up behind bars for 15 years. Activists around the world are demanding that Watson be released immediately with protests from Los Angeles to France outside Danish government offices. Watson was first arrested back in July when his ship docked in Greenland, which is park of the kingdom of Denmark. Danish authorities are still deciding whether to extradite him. Japan is one of the few nations that still engages in whaling. Environmentalists and animal lovers across the globe are outraged that any government would side with whalers at a time when our seas and the animals in them are in crisis.

L'été commence et, comme chaque année, je voudrais profiter du mois d'août pour rediffuser des épisodes passés, qui sont particulièrement chers à mon coeur et que vous pourriez avoir loupé. L'actualité du moment m'amène à vous proposer l'épisode enregistré avec Captain Watson, fondateur de Sea Shepard et de la Paul Watson Foundation. ⏩ Parce que cet homme est un héro. ⏩ Parce que cette discussion est une leçon pour nous tous. ⏩ Et surtout parce que Paul Watson a été arrêté le 21 juillet dernier au Groenland et est menacé d'extradition au Japon. Il faut savoir que depuis 1986, un moratoire a été promulgué par la Commission baleinière internationale qui était inquiète de la disparition de l'espèce, et interdit la pêche commerciale des baleines. Avec l'Islande et la Norvège, le Japon fait partie des trois derniers pays à continuer cette activité... Si Paul Watson devait être extradé, le Japon le garderait en prison à vie ! Alors, aujourd'hui, j'ai quelque chose à vous demander : faites passer cet épisode autour de vous et faites raisonner la voix magistrale de Captain Watson !"I don't like protesting, I want to intervene."Captain Watson, co-fondateur de Greenpeace et fondateur de Sea Shepherd Conservation SocietyCette semaine, j'ai l'honneur de recevoir l'immense CAPITAINE PAUL WATSON !

Despite advocating for conservation and animal rights causes, Watson faced backlash and legal repercussions for his aggressive tactics. His involvement in organizations like Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd led to confrontations with authorities, particularly in Japan, where he interfered with whaling activities. Watson's approach to activism, which involved direct action and sometimes confrontational methods, garnered both support and criticism. While he achieved some success in raising awareness and initiating change, his actions also alienated certain groups and countries. This polarization highlights the potential consequences of activism, where individuals may face legal challenges, arrest, or even extradition for their advocacy efforts. The episode also touched upon the complexities of Watson's character, noting instances where he made controversial statements, such as criticizing indigenous practices related to hunting. These remarks further fueled the divide in public opinion about his methods and beliefs. Despite his dedication to conservation causes, Watson's confrontational approach and contentious statements have led to a mixed reception among supporters and detractors. Overall, the case of Captain Paul Watson serves as a reminder that activism, while crucial for driving change, can come with repercussions. Individuals advocating for causes they believe in may encounter resistance, legal challenges, and public scrutiny. The episode underscores the importance of considering the potential consequences of activism and the need to navigate these challenges while staying true to one's values and goals. Captain Paul Watson's aggressive conservation methods have indeed polarized opinions within the marine conservation community and the general public. On one hand, many people praise his unwavering dedication to protecting the ocean and marine life. Watson's founding of both Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd, two prominent conservation organizations, has led to significant changes in marine conservation efforts globally. These organizations have employed marine conservationists, activists, and policy makers, and have successfully advocated for marine protection and policy changes. However, on the other hand, Watson's approach, which often involves confrontational and aggressive tactics, has drawn criticism from many quarters. His use of violence and direct action, such as ramming boats and disrupting whaling activities, has been controversial and has led to legal issues and conflicts with authorities. Additionally, Watson has made controversial statements, including criticizing indigenous communities for their involvement in activities like selling hunting quotas to wealthy hunters. The episode highlights how Watson's actions and statements have led to a mixed reception among conservationists and the public. While some view him as a hero for his relentless efforts to protect marine life, others condemn his methods and rhetoric. The episode also discusses the recent ousting of Watson from Sea Shepherd due to disagreements over the organization's direction, indicating internal conflicts within the conservation community regarding his approach. Overall, Captain Paul Watson's legacy is a complex one, with supporters lauding his commitment to marine conservation and detractors questioning the effectiveness and ethics of his aggressive tactics and controversial statements. The episode underscores the ongoing debate surrounding Watson's conservation methods and the diverse opinions within the conservation community regarding his contributions to ocean protection. The arrest of Captain Paul Watson outside Greenland or Iceland has sparked a debate on the balance between activism, ethics, and the potential consequences of one's actions in the conservation field. Captain Watson, a prominent figure in marine conservation, has a long history of aggressive activism through organizations like Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd. His methods, including confrontational tactics and direct action, have garnered both support and criticism. Captain Watson's arrest brings to light the question of whether the ends justify the means in conservation activism. While he has been successful in raising awareness and effecting change in some instances, his approach has also alienated and angered many, including governments and indigenous communities. The episode highlights how his actions, while driven by a passion for protecting the ocean, have led to legal troubles and strained relationships with various stakeholders. The episode delves into the complexities of activism and the ethical considerations that come into play. Captain Watson's confrontational tactics, such as disrupting whaling operations and targeting illegal fishing vessels, have been effective in some cases but have also raised ethical concerns. His controversial statements and actions have polarized opinions within the conservation community, with some viewing him as a hero and others as a problematic figure. The arrest of Captain Paul Watson serves as a reminder of the potential consequences of activism and the importance of considering the ethical implications of one's actions. It prompts reflection on the balance between passion for conservation and the methods used to achieve conservation goals. The episode encourages listeners to engage in a dialogue about the complexities of activism, ethics, and the impact of one's actions in the conservation field.

On Sunday, July 21, Ocean Activist and Sea Shepherd Society founder Paul Watson was arrested in Greenland, a territory of Denmark, on an Interpol warrant issued by Japan. Japan claims he damaged one of their commercial whaling ships while protesting and helping to end Japanese whaling off Antarctica. France, where Watson now lives, has asked Denmark not to extradite him. We're replaying our October 2022 interview with Watson so you can better understand his perspective on fighting for whales, against pirate fishing, and for the health of the Ocean. In this episode, we talked to Captain Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, about his background fighting for beavers, seals, and whales and the breakup with Sea Shepherd over its purpose and direction. We also discussed the Paul Watson Foundation, his biocentric religion, phytoplankton, and the planet, and how his time at the siege of Wounded Knee taught him not to fear for the future. If, after hearing from Paul, you'd like to also protest to the Danish Embassy or reach out to one of your members of Congress to add pressure on Denmark not to support Japan's political persecution of him, you can find out how in our program notes.

In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast we have the pleasure of speaking with Rob Read from CPWF UK and Captain Paul Watson.  Rob and Paul talk about the urgent need to stop Kristján Loftsson from killing more endangered fin whales this year.  While Loftsson still needs to secure a permit from the Icelandic government to kill whales, Rob and Paul point out that Loftsson's immense wealth and political power often means that he gets what he wants.  Unfortunately the one thing Kristján Loftsson wants is to cruelly harpoon fin whales so he can sell the meat to Japan.  Fin whales are the second largest mammal on earth and are key contributors to our global ecosystems.  We need to save every fin whale we can! Rob and Paul also make the announcement of Operation Ice Storm - which is the CPWF's new campaign to make sure no fin whales are murdered. Support the showhttps://www.paulwatsonfoundation.org/https://shop.paulwatson.com/

Captain Paul Watson paints a vivid picture of the dire state of our oceans, driven by overfishing, unsustainable practices, and human greed. Highlighting the imbalance, he underscores the fact that chickens eat more fish than puffins and pigs more than sharks. He criticizes the widespread willful ignorance that blinds us to the depletion of marine life and challenges the notion of "sustainable" commercial fishing. As our fish populations decline, Watson raises concerns about worldwide starvation and the collapse of fishing industries. It's a call to confront our actions and restore balance to our oceans. #SaveOurOceans #SustainableFishing #EconomicsOfExtinction.

As speakers Julian Cribb, Captain Paul Watson, David Montgomery, and Anne Biklé discuss, the global community is currently witnessing an unprecedented extinction event, characterized by the loss of biodiversity, ecological collapse, and looming food crises. They emphasize the necessity of a paradigm shift in human consciousness to a more ecocentric worldview, urging humanity to recognize the interconnectedness and interdependence of all species in the ecosystem. Immediate actions such as halting mechanized fishing and banning fossil fuels are suggested as powerful steps in averting further catastrophe. The conversation serves as a stern warning and a plea for cohesive and meaningful action towards environmental sustainability. #EcologicalHarmony #GlobalWakeUpCall #InterconnectedEcosystem

Captain Paul Watson, co-founder of Greenpeace and founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, stresses the urgent need to actively protect our planet's oceans from human intervention. While the planet can recover over millions of years, humanity may not have the same luxury. Watson highlights the significance of phytoplankton as the foundation of life in the ocean and points out the reckless, unchecked nature of commercial fishing. Asserting that we are in the midst of the sixth major extinction, Watson believes the onus is on humans to save ourselves from our own ecological ignorance, rather than saving the planet. #SaveTheOceans #AggressiveNonViolence #ProtectPhytoplankton

Reality Checks with Staci-lee Staci-lee chats with Captain Paul Watson, known for his work with Greenpeace and founding Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.

While petitions and peaceful protests have their place, Captain Watson has always believed in the power of direct action.

In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation podcast, I get the chance to speak with Captain Watson about the announcement that Lolita may be released from her prison at the Miami Seaquarium in Florida.  Lolita is a Southern Resident Killer Whale taken from her family (the L Pod) at the age of 4 back in 1970.  She was sold to the Miami Seaquarium at this young age and used to earn a profit for her owners.  Lolita currently lives in a very small tank - it is about 80ft x 35ft and is about 20 ft deep in the middle.  Not much room at all for a 20 ft long orca.  Paul and I go over the issues with the recent announcement that Lolita is going to be freed.  The process of getting Lolita back to the Pacific Northwest is going to take a long time, about 2 years.  In those 2 years a lot can go wrong.  The Dolphin Company recently purchased the Miami Seaquarium.  The Dolphin Company later was told by the government that Lolita can no longer perform for the public.  The announcement to free Lolita seems like a business tactic by The Dolphin Company to unload a useless and expensive asset.  It costs a lot of money to feed and care for an orca in captivity.  By offering to release Lolita, they can get good publicity while at the same time getting rid of an animal that is only costing them money and giving them bad press.  Regardless of the motivations for this announcement, it is our hope that there is a positive outcome for Lolita, she has been forced to live on her own for a long time in a concrete prison.Captain Paul Watson wrote a book on orcas in captivity called ORCAPEDIA.  If you'd like to know more about this topic, this is a great resource.https://shop.paulwatson.com/products/orcapediaSupport the showhttps://www.paulwatsonfoundation.org/https://shop.paulwatson.com/
