A Real-Life ‘Free Willy’: The Fight to Free 100 Captive Whales & the Power of Ocean Storytelling

Written By Holden Hardcastle

To celebrate Earth Day (which is 71% ocean) we’re speaking with Margaret Spring, Chief conservation and science officer for the world -famous Monterey Bay Aquarium, in California.  Before coming to the aquarium Margaret was an environmental attorney and a leader at NOAA. Today she oversees the aquarium’s science policy work including on plastic pollution, its Seafood Watch sustainable seafood program and much of the deep ocean research conducted at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing.
