Rising Tide #84 – Congressman Jared Huffman is an Ocean Champ

On today’s show we speak with Rep. Jared Huffman (D – CA) whose congressional district runs up California’s coast from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Oregon border. A long time ocean champion he talks about laws he’s helped pass to protect salmon and kelp forests, the removal of dams on the Klamath river and how offshore floating wind farms could be the greatest boom to the area’s economy since logging but with better outcomes. He also talks about what’s unique on “the redwood coast.” Join us in a hopeful conversation.Rising Tide, the Ocean Podcast is co-hosted by Blue Frontier's David Helvarg and the Inland Ocean Coalition's Vicki Nichols-Goldstein. This podcast aims to give you information, inspiration and motivation (along with a few laughs) to help understand our ocean world and make it better. The ocean is rising, and so are we!Learn more at bluefront.org
