My name is Augustus. This is the preservation of the human race.

Welcome everyone. Thanks for joining us.

I'm happy to be here.

AJ.

Yeah, for sure. Thanks, Augustus. First, we'd just like to talk about give a quick background

of some of your environmental work and your activism that you've done

and then kind of especially touch on, you know, the big win for Monsanto

and what that means for other cases going forward.

I've been doing environmental litigation since 1985.

And I was a founder of the Waterkeeper Alliance.

I first worked for the Hudson River keeper who was a coalition of commercial and

recreational fishermen who started

assuming polluters on Hudson. We used bounties from those lawsuits to

construct boat. We began patrolling the river and

suing the polluter and I ended up sending hundreds of polluters on Hudson.

Hudson is now a model for ecosystem restoration.

So we force polluters. We so it's to go over 500 polluters on the river.

Or we force them to spend five and a half billion dollars to eight odds.

And if the rich is water and the Atlantic, it produces more

mass per gallon or pounds of fish per acre than any other waterway in the Atlantic

Ocean with the equator. The miraculous resurrection of the Hudson

inspired the creation out of 350 other water keepers in 46 countries.
