Charles Clover and Christopher Hird join the Fish Schtick today from Great Britain. Charles is a journalist and author, with a weekly column about environmental matters in the Sunday Times. He was Environment Editor of The Daily Telegraph, based in London, from 1988-2008. He has been elected national journalist of the year by the British Environment and Media Awards three times, in 1989, 1994 and 1996. His book, “The End of the Line: how over-fishing is changing the world and what we eat,” has been described as “The Inconvenient Truth of our Oceans.” Christopher Hird was the Executive Producer for the film “End of the Line” – the onscreen documentary adaptation of Charles’ book. Mr.  Hird is one of the UK's most experienced producers of documentaries and factual television, who has made films and television programs for broadcasters all over the world. His company Dartmouth Films specializes in making independent documentaries which make a difference. One of his previous films Black Gold, championed the cause of fair trade for coffee producers. He hopes the End of the Line will do the same for sustainable fishing. Guest Intro / Interview Charles Clover wrote “End of the Line,” the book that has become the definitive reference on overfishing of our world’s oceans. Christopher Hird is the Executive Producer of the film adaptation of that book. Today Charles and Christo join us from the U.K. for The Fish Schtick. Charles and Christo – most people who listen to The Fish Schtick are recreational anglers. Do you do any fishing yourselves? Your documentary is exceptional in its power, and it brings to the forefront not just the potential for species collapse in the oceans, but the reality that the collapse of many species either already occurred, or is occurring now. Can you sum up the issue for our listeners? How are our oceans different today than they were 50 years ago or 100 years ago, and if we continue at our current pace, what will the makeup of the oceans look like in 50 or 100 years? There are lots of environmental issues. Charles, what was it about the overfishing of our oceans that made this something you focused on – what captured your attention? What are the facts, statistics, anecdotes, experiences – that stand out for you, as you look at the film, at making it, and at where the issue is today? The film appears to represent a number of global locations – where did you travel to film End of the Line? What kinds of attitudes are you faced with in addressing this issue? What are the interests that are driving overfishing and resisting conservation  – or why is it that turning around overfishing isn’t simpler? What are the solutions? On a social / big picture level how do we fix this, and on an individual level, what can any of us do? Ted Danson narrates the U.S. version of the film, but we know that you’re off to the Spanish premiere next week. Safe to assume Ted Danson isn’t doing the Spanish version – how many versions of the film are there, and do they differ based upon the audience? So far, are you getting the impression that it’s making a difference? http://endoftheline.com/ (http://endoftheline.com/) MauroMedia no 23:41 http://mauromedia.com/podcast/fish-schtick-episode-31-aaron-adams-bonefish-tarpon-trust/ http://mauromedia.com/podcast/fish-schtick-episode-31-aaron-adams-bonefish-tarpon-trust/#comments Thu, 28 Jan 2010 04:28:35 +0000 Michael Mauro http://mauromedia.com/?p=1981 http://mauromedia.com/podcast/fish-schtick-episode-31-aaron-adams-bonefish-tarpon-trust/feed/ 1 aaron adams,Asian Carp,Bonefish,Bonefish & Tarpon Trust,brian bennett,ESPN 2,Florida,Fly Fisherman’s Guide to Saltwater Prey,marl flats,mauromedia,michael mauro,Moldy Chum You saw him in one of our Fish Schtick Video Shorts last year at the FFR Show.
