Our relationship with the ocean and the life it holds is broken. No one I know would go to Africa, look at a rhinoceros, and immediately think of a barbecue.
If these highly and fully protected areas in the ocean are well funded, well managed, and large enough to safeguard the processes and ecosystems that make them unique, they can bring back the richness and abundance of ocean life.
Galápagos and the marine life it holds shows us what we all need to know about the global ocean: no one ecosystem is ever isolated.
The struggle is for our blue heart, for our existence itself.
