How did you come to be working on Greenpeace ships?
I used to sail in oil tankers where I witnessed a lot of bad practice such as tank cleaning, sludge discharge in the sea etc. Coming back to my hometown, Corrientes, I got shocked by how much the Parana River has changed since my childhood: almost no fish, polluted water.
At that time I thought I could join Greenpeace ships to use my mariner skills to do something for the environment.
If you could change one thing in the world, what would it be?
No more wars. They are useless, contradictory, unnatural and horrendous. They serve no purpose but the power-hungry world leaders. I would re-direct all the money going to the military industry towards humanitarian help, medical care, education and renewable energy.
