    “The End”: Montauk, Activism, and Conservation with Taylor & Liev Schreiber

    Montauk, known locally as “The End,” is a historic fishing village at the eastern tip of Long Island that boasts some of the finest surf beaches on the East Coast — many now threatened by serious water quality and beach erosion issues. In today's episode, we speak with Taylor and Liev Schreiber, exploring their special connection to the town, the ocean, and their long-standing support of Surfrider's coastal conservation mission. We'll also spend time with Surfrider's Water Quality Initiative Senior Manager and Montauk local Mara Dias alongside Surfrider CEO Dr. Chad Nelsen to learn more about the environmental challenges facing Montauk’s coastal community.

    The Most Polluted Beach in America

    The Tijuana River is poisoning San Diego residents. Every day, millions of gallons of untreated sewage, toxic chemicals, and trash are crossing the international border, and the problem is spreading to an increasingly greater area of San Diego County. In today’s show, we talk to Surfrider's Clean Border Water Now Program Manager Sarah Davidson, Doctor Kimberly Dickson, who is treating local residents for medical conditions related to the pollution, and Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre, to learn why Surfrider is calling on the Trump administration to declare a national emergency which is essential to containing and correcting what is rapidly becoming the biggest public health crisis in America.
