How can ordinary people appreciate the life-sustaining force of the oceans when most of us don’t dive beneath the surface? A nonprofit in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary has taken on this question by training youth to become scientific divers. The students in Dive-N2-Life have a passion for conservation born from assisting with research on everything from the ecological role of sharks to a devastating coral disease that has broken out in the Keys.
“Why are we taught Shakespeare and Algebra, before we are taught conservation, before we are taught how to survive on the planet? Especially when we know that by midcentury our survival is very much in jeopardy” – Rob Stewart
