Happy Earth Day, Everyone!

A young harbor seal plays in kelp forest near the water’s surface at Cortes Banks, a range of underwater mountains located 100-miles off the coast of San Diego, CA. This location - well known for stormy weather and giant waves - is a hotspot of biodiversity, with an abundance of marine life. Places like this are oases of life in the sea, yet the fragile ecosystem is highly susceptible to the harmful behavior of humans.

Naturalist John Muir once said, "“When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world” and throughout my career of exploring our planet and especially the oceans I have found this to be true - everything is connected and every creature matters. I believe we must see ourselves not apart or above nature, but very much connected to it.
