In this episode of the Tom Rowland Podcast, I sit down with Captain Chris Whitman, co-founder of Captains for Clean Water, to discuss the urgent issues facing Florida's water systems and the birth of their impactful organization.

We delve into the history of policies leading to the degradation of the Everglades, and how Captains for Clean Water arose out of a dire need for action.

Chris shares compelling stories about the dedication of fishing guides who traded their dream jobs to become advocates for clean water. We also talk about significant wins, hurdles, and the resilience of the angling community in response to natural disasters like hurricanes.

This episode highlights the power of collective voices in driving political change and preserving our natural water resources.
