Join Only One with me

Why this matters

Some of my strongest and fondest childhood memories of times I spent by the sea, having grown up in Malibu. The vastness of the ocean and the endless variety of things living in it fascinated me. Naturally, as I grew older I became obsessed with documentaries about the ocean, from blue planet to shark week, I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Recently I have refound my passion for the ocean through discussions with my friend Torin Cannings. Torin is a palaeoceanographer who researches how the oceans responded to climate change in the past, he hopes his work can help us to understand how we can help our oceans in the future. As someone who works with vast oceans and deep time, Torin always told me that he loved how small yet significant his work can make him feel. Only now do I truly understand what he means, there is an unimaginable beauty in the fact that individuals can have effect on the future of something as vast as the ocean. 

Whilst I still enjoy learning about the ocean, these conversations always have a melancholic shadow. I want my future children and generations to come to enjoy the ocean as I did as a child, and to share my fascination. We need to save the oceans so that the oceans can continue to shape lives like mine & my friends'.
