  Sea Shepherd Conservation Society - Captain Paul Watson Biography
Paul Watson was one of the co-founders of the Greenpeace Foundation.
In June 1977, Paul Watson resigned from the Greenpeace Foundation because of disagreements with the emerging bureaucratic structure of the organization.
Paul left Greenpeace because he felt the original goals of the organization were being compromised, and because he saw a global need to continue direct action conservation activities on the high seas by an organization that would enforce laws protecting marine wildlife.

 Paul Watson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paul Watson (born December 2, 1950 in Toronto, Canada) is the founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and is a significant, albeit controversial, figure in conservationism.
Watson claims to have offered his services as a medic to the members of the American Indian Movement during the Wounded Knee Incident in South Dakota but his presence and role is contested by many noted participants who have written of Watson's claims as further grandstanding and self-mythologyzing to increase his brand value and bankability.
Watson was a field correspondent for Defenders of Wildlife from 1976 to 1980 and a field representative for the Fund for Animals from 1978 to 1981.

Watson and the protest industry he represents of "collecting millions of dollars by preying on people who are unaware of the dynamics of indigenous cultures and coastal communities, and our relationship to our environment and ecosystems".
Watson stated that although "we do not want to be the enemy of native communities, [there] is an old saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend and it also holds true that the ally of my enemy becomes my enemy as well".

Watson, a seaman by trade, having spent his life working for both the Norwegian and Swedish Merchant Marines, was born in Toronto, Ontario, and raised in New Brunswick.
Divorced and the father of one daughter, Watson is also a founding member of Greenpeace in 1970; he went on to found his own organization in 1977, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, because the former wasn't sufficiently "non-violently aggressive" for his tastes: Unlike Greenpeace, Watson says he didn't just jump onto whaling ships for publicity.
