To Sea or Not to Sea

Host Ben Pomeroy gets two perspectives on the state of our fisheries, what form of management works and what doesn’t. He talks with Tim Fitzgerald, a marine scientist with the Environmental Defense Fund’s Oceans Program and Gary Hall, a gill net fisherman from Block Island, Rhode Island on overfishing and the Days at Sea and Catch Share Programs. Plus: Slate’s Nina Shen Rastogi explains the difference between “greenwashed” disinfectants and those that actually work.
