World renowned oceanographer Dr. Sylvia Earle reflects on the incredible connection between a Laysan albatross named Wisdom, the oldest known bird in the world, and the Worldwide Voyage of Hōkūle‘a.
Worldwide Voyage crewmembers join with the Kokua Hawaii Foundation, Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii, and the US Forest Service to clean up beaches along Oʻahu's North Shore.
In Mauritius, Reef Conservation has created underwater snorkeling trails to educate and engage tourists and residents to protect the surrounding reef ecosystems.
"Rather than being frustrated that we would not return to the shuttle boat as the heroes who collected heaps of trash, this beach clean up became a moment of hope."
