On the anniversary of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, New York Times columnist and author Mark Bittman sat down with Ted to talk about "Oceana: Our Endangered Oceans and What We Can Do to Save Them." Enjoy!
From the environmental activist and actor Ted Danson comes the ultimate guide to saving our oceans.
In “Oceana,” actor Ted Danson describes his other, 20-year career as an ocean activist and shares the often frightening yet hopeful news about the crisis in our oceans.

Today, Ted is a leading spokesperson on international ocean issues and a board member of Oceana, the largest organization in the world focused solely on ocean conservation.
