Smith is also the author of the book Eat Like a Fish: My Adventure as a Fisherman Turned Ocean Farmer. Calling his book “salty,” he recommends this is not a book for young ears.

We talk about the importance of the ocean and of thoughtful job transitions that take the local economy and culture into account.

What a fun episode to round out our slate of guests this season.

About the Author

republicEn.org is an organization committed to growing U.S. conservative climate leadership. Members of republicEn are conservatives, libertarians, and pragmatists of diverse political opinion. We stand together because we believe in American free enterprise. We believe that with a true level playing field, free enterprise can deliver the innovation to solve climate change. But America's climate policy needs to change. Change requires that conservative leaders step-up and lead. Climate change is real and we believe it's our duty and our opportunity to reduce the risks. But to make a difference, we have to fight climate change with free enterprise instead of ineffective subsidies and regulations.
