Scientists Never Stop Asking. They're Little Kids

I'm Haunted By The Thought Of What Ray Anderson Calls 'tomorrow's Child,' Asking Why We Didn't Do Something On Our Watch To Save Sharks And Bluefin Tuna And Squids And Coral Reefs And The Living Ocean While There Still Was Time. Well, Now Is That Time.

Our Past, Our Present, And Whatever Remains Of Our Future, Absolutely Depend On What We Do Now.

Our Job Is To Keep What Is Working Intact And Not Destroy What We Have Got.

The Ocean Governs The Climate And The Weather, It Is Taking Care Of The Temperature And It Is Shaping The Chemistry Of Our Planet.

Just As We Have The Power To Harm The Ocean, We Have The Power To Put In Place Policies And Modify Our Own Behavior In Ways That Would Be An Insurance Policy For The Future Of The Sea, For The Creatures There, And For Us, Protecting Special Critical Areas In The Ocean.
