File this one under “Activists in the Gulf.”
You can think of Mike Sturdivant as our Gulf of Mexico point person. He’s the Chair of Surfrider’s Emerald Coast Chapter, covering the Pensacola to Panama City region.
I caught up with him on August 2nd to get his take on what had happened, how it was affecting the local people and environment and what was ahead for them.
Interestingly, we were walking the beach and just so happened to pass a permanent sign warning us about potential oil and dispersant contamination. Listen in as we catch up.

One Comment so far. Leave a comment below.Finally got around to listening to this podcast. Amazing and scary all at the same time. Two things I connected with. “If we don’t do it, It WON’T get done.” and Mike’s concern about losing the surf spot that he hoped to teach his son at when he got old enough.
Jim these are the best thing that are getting put out under the Surfrider Foundation banner. Great work
