Behind the Glass – Kim McIntyre and the Aquarium Conservation Partnership
Episode 136
Monday, 2 June, 2025
In the latest episode of Rising Tide, the Ocean Podcast David Helvarg and Natasha Benjamin talk with Kim McIntyre, the Executive Director of the Aquarium Conservation Partnership, a coalition of 35 aquariums working together to increase their collective impact. Along with helping revive the Peter Benchley Ocean Awards that took place at the National Aquarium in May, the 9-year-old coalition is involved in educating its members’ 40 million annual visitors around issues of sustainable seafood, climate change, plastic pollution and more. Kim talks about the changing role of aquariums as conservation hubs for the sea, marine animal rehab and release centers and how many children are transformed by their first visit to an aquarium. Plus, we’ll have our ‘Blue News You Can Use’: This week on the threat of Deep-Sea Mining that the Trump administration has just embraced. So, dive into our aquarium special. ** Links & Resources ** National Aquarium: https://aqua.org/ Aquarium Conservation Partnership: https://www.aquariumconservation.org/ The Metals Company: https://metals.co/ UN's International Seabed Authority: https://www.isa.org.jm/ New England Aquarium: https://www.neaq.org/ The New York Aquarium: https://nyaquarium.com/ Monterey Bay Aquarium: https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/ Shedd Aquarium: https://www.sheddaquarium.org/ West Coast Governor's Alliance on Ocean Health: https://www.westcoastoceanalliance.org/ Blue Frontier: bluefront.org Building the solution-based citizen movement needed to protect our ocean, coasts and communities, both human and wild.
