About John Powell & Simon Pickering’s Episode

Listen and engage with this fascinating discussion about the ocean and underwater noise pollution,  a topic of great importance but has had little attention given to it. Now is the time to learn. In this episode, filmed in John Powell’s LA studio, Simone plays sounds she has recorded made by whales, seals, fish,  shrimp and other organisms from around the world. John explains the impact sound has on people, why the JAWS theme is so unnerving,  and how John uses his work to improve our world. Finally, John, Simone Pickering and Greg bring to our attention that the oceans are increasingly being polluted with sound made by people from ships, explosions and our industrial activity. What does this mean to ocean health and what can we do?
