Captain Paul Watson
For more than 20 years, Captain Paul Watson has been at the helm
of the world’s most active marine conservation organisation.
Merging his career as a master mariner with his concern for
wildlife, Watson co-founded Greenpeace in 1972 and served as
First Officer on all the early Greenpeace voyages to protect
whales. In 1977 Watson established the Sea Shepherd Conservation
Society and put the first conservation enforcement vessel,
Sea Shepherd into action. Captain Watson’s lifelong dedication
to the protection and conservation of marine wildlife and eco-
systems has never wavered. He and his volunteer crew raise
awareness, champion the defenceless and fight for the
preservation of bio-diversity
This CD was inspired by a community’s strong desire to do something positive to help create a better world for all beings. Thanks to all the musicians who enthusiastically donated their music
"I am very grateful to all the artists for creating this first ever, all-Australian compilation cd for Sea Shepherd. The proceeds will help us continue our 30 year fight to end illegal whaling on the high seas. The slaughter of the great whales has no place in the 21st century. For the oceans!”
