Our Job Is To Keep What Is

Why Does Evolution Matter? There Is So Much About The Evolution Of Life, The Development Of Life On Earth That Should Rivet The Attention Of Everyone To Understand Where We've Come From And Where We Might Be Going. We Need To Understand The World Around Us If We Are To Succeed As A Species On The Planet.

My First Breath Was Just...it Just Seemed Impossible That You Could Actually Breathe Underwater. I Knew In My Mind It Was Possible, But Actually Experiencing It Was Such A Gulp Of Joy And I Feel It Every Time I Go Under The Ocean. I Love Doing It, To Be Able To Feel Weightless, To Spin On One Finger, To Do Somersaults, To Be Like A Graceful Ballerina - Even With A Huge Tank On Your Back You Can Do The Most Extraordinary Things.

We Are Depleting This Immense Diversity And Abundance Of Life, And It Matters Tremendously For The Future Of The Planet.

Nothing Has Prepared Sharks, Squid, Krill And Other Sea Creatures For Industrial-scale Extraction That Destroys Entire Ecosystems While Targeting A Few Species.
