EDF’s Chief Oceans Scientist, Doug Rader, Works to Protect North Carolina’s Coastal Waters for “People and Critters”

This weekend Science and Technology reporter for The Charlotte Observer and Raleigh News & Observer, Tyler Dukes,  wrote about Dr. Doug Rader’s work to protect North Carolina’s costal waters.  In addition to being EDF’s Chief Oceans Scientist, Dr. Rader also sits on the North Carolina Governor’s Scientific Advisory Panel on Offshore Energy, which will release its final report next month on the state’s coastal energy resources.

In the article, Dukes shares how Dr. Rader has spent his career helping to shape coastal policy that addresses the needs of both marine life and fishermen, as well as others who rely on the ocean for their livelihoods. As Dr. Rader puts it — policy that works for both “people and critters.”
