And we’re back! Welcome to Season 5 of The Lentil Intervention Podcast. We are thrilled to be bringing you more insightful discussions, inspiring stories and scientific snapshots this year, and we are certainly kicking things off with a bang with our first guest, Max Romey.
Max is a phenomenal artist, filmmaker, producer, educator, trail runner and environmental advocate based in Anchorage, Alaska. Max uses his unique blend of watercolours and videography to highlight the complexities of environmental problems impacting both local and global communities.
We learn about Max’s background and inspiring outlook on life, as well as discuss his latest works which focus on the once pristine wilderness of Katmai National Park and Preserve. Unfortunately, even with its remoteness, the world’s rubbish problem has come knocking on Katmai’s shores. Even though the debris on Katmai might come from a world away, when it comes to ocean plastics we are all in the same boat, so this conversation with Max only serves to underscore the need for global action – no matter where we are located, we’ve all got a role to play.
In this episode, we discuss:
Max’s background and love of paintingRetracing his grandmother’s travels and artworkCommunicating climate and environmental science through artImportant considerations for impactful filmmaking and storytellingMax’s relationship with many of the world’s top trail runnersKatmai National Park and its sizeable marine debris problemMax’s previous film No Lost Shoes and his upcoming release Footprints on KatmaiThe ocean’s oxygen factories (phytoplankton) and concerns with microplasticsInspiring behaviour change while living in an imperfect worldMaking a change by starting at homeTo view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.
