ENTANGLED  – About the right whale, fishery and climate change

Today I talk to David Abel, an award-winning reporter who covers fisheries and environmental issues for The Boston Globe.

He is the director of the documentary "ENTANGLED", a feature-length film about how climate change has accelerated a collision between North America's most valubale fishery, one of the world's most endangered species – the right whale – and a federal agency mandated to protect both, which won a 2020 Jackson Wild award, known as the Oscars of nature films.

We talk about which challenges the Northern Right Whale has to face and which role climate change has. About problems caused by the fishing industry and upcoming solutions with new technologies like “rope-less fishing” and “Whale Alert apps”. We talk about “break-off lines” and what every individual can do to rise protection of these marine mammals.

David further tells us his background story of how he started making documentaries and shares tips he can give to aspiring film makers who want to spread their message with the world.

Stay until the very end to hear David following his natural habitat as a journalist, starting to interview me.
