In this exclusive Zoom interview, Jeff Goodman, Scubaverse Editor-at-Large, chats to diving legend and explorer Sylvia Earle about her new National Geographic book - Ocean: A Global Odyssey - and the Mission Blue project.
Sylvia Earle is a marine biologist, oceanographer, explorer, author and lecturer, scuba diver, and research scientist. She founded Mission Blue, an organization dedicated to protecting the ocean from threats such as climate change, pollution, habitat destruction, invasive species, and the dramatic decrease in ocean fish stocks.
Sylvia has dived in all five of the world’s oceans, and plays a leading role in establishing marine protected areas (MPAs) as “hope spots” around the world. MPAs are intended to "protect and restore the blue heart of the planet."
