SUMMARY:From Chasing Poachers to Catalyzing Systems Change: The Evolution 
 of Sea Shepherd's Approach to Antarctic Conservation
LOCATION:Hopkins Marine Station Izzie Abbott Boatworks Auditorium\, 120 Oc
 ean View Blvd Pacific Grove\, CA 93950
DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, Peter Hammarstedt captained a Sea Shepherd ship in a
  110-day pursuit of the Antarctic poaching vessel Thunder across three oc
 eans. The chase helped shape Sea Shepherd's evolution from a primary focu
 s on direct confrontation to a broader strategy integrating government pa
 rtnerships\, independent science\, and advocacy.\n\nToday\, that approach
  is unfolding in Antarctica\, where Dr. Matthew Savoca of Stanfordʼs Hopk
 ins Marine Station leads independent scientists aboard a Sea Shepherd ves
 sel studying whale recovery and its overlap with industrial krill fishing
 . Sea Shepherd has also taken its campaign ashore\, encouraging major ret
 ailers to remove krill products from sale.\n\nDrawing on more than two de
 cades at sea\, Hammarstedt\, now Sea Shepherd Globalʼs Chief Campaigns Of
 ficer\, will share stories of pursuit\, confrontation and unlikely collab
 oration\, exploring how science\, enforcement and market action can work 
 together to protect Antarcticaʼs whales and ecosystems.\n\nFree\, but reg
 istration is required.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/026f2247-5465-4e8c-
