Imagine immersing yourself in the depths of the ocean. You're submerged beneath the sea, thinking you're the great observer, there to witness what's happening. But then, you realize that everyone is watching you.That's precisely the experience Sylvia Earle, known as "Her Deepness" for her record-breaking untethered dives reaching 381 meters (1,250 feet), shared with us. She has spent her life as a tireless advocate for the oceans, being the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's first female Chief Scientist. It's been a wonderful moment for us to reposition humanity in the web of life. Sylvia's efforts to raise public awareness about our interconnectedness with marine ecosystems underscore the urgent need for humanity to treat all life with equality. So, let's embark on an exploration of the ocean's depths with Sylvia as we dive into wildlife conservation, the pivotal role of Indigenous Peoples as allies, captivating anecdotes from her missions, and much more.Learn more about WILD: www.wild.org Mission Blue: https://missionblue.org/Hosted by Ausha.
