After living for nearly 100 years on this planet,I now understand the mostimportant place on Earth is not on landbut atSea. Through the course of my life,wehave been on a voyage of ocean discovery. Only now are we understandingwhat it means for the future of ourworld. What we have found could changeeverything.
For once you've truly seenthe sea, you'll never look at Earth inthe same wayagain. The ocean is our planet's lifesupport system and our greatest allyagainst climatecatastrophe. Yet it's but acrossroads. We are draining the life fromourocean.
Today is in such poor healthI would find it hard not to losehope. Were it not for the most remarkablediscovery ofall? The ocean can recover faster than wehad ever imagined. It can bounce back tolife.
But simply we've been given alifeline. It may not just recover, but thrive beyond anything anyone alivehas everseen. This is the story of ourocean and how we must write its nextchaptertogether.
