Daniel - Deckhand

Crew: Daniel
Daniel - Deckhand
From: Switzerland
Hi, my name is Daniel, I am 36 years old, member of Greenpeace since 22 years, activist since 1997. This is my second trip on the Esperanza, the last one was four years ago in the North Sea for the forest campaign. I'm working on the ship as a deckhand and I write the blog for the german speaking countries Switzerland, Austria and Germany.

Normally I'm in charge for Greenpeace Switzerland, this since six years. My first education is something between draftsman and engineer (you can learn this profession only in Switzerland and Germany), my second education is specialist for nature and environment. On my daily work I can bring my know-how together. I made several trips on a whale research boat in the Mediterranean - actually I really love this small, but very rich sea.

The seas and all the species who live in there are very important for me. I hope we can reach our aim with the defending our oceans campaign and set 40 percent of the worlds oceans including the Mediterranean under protection. I hope as well that we can safe the tuna. It makes me sad and angry when I think that 80 percent of this beautiful fish has gone.

Read all about Daniels experience on the Esperanza on the German weblog.
