THE OCEAN'S VOICE
A Call to Protect our Ocean Commons.
"Her Deepness" Sylvia Earle — legendary oceanographer, President of Mission Blue, Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society, and Voice of Commons Ambassador — joins host Giulia Foscari for a powerful conversation from the Venice Biennale Vernissage. Drawing on thousands of hours beneath the Ocean surface, Sylvia transports us into a vibrant interspecies world to which we all belong, confronting the threats of overfishing, deep-sea mining, and ocean acidification. Reflecting on ocean governance, the High Seas Treaty, and the Global Commons, she reminds us that, with unprecedented knowledge of Earth's interconnected systems, we have the best chance — and the urgent responsibility — to act. From advancing marine protected areas to fostering Hope Spots, Sylvia calls for bold action to safeguard the blue heart of our planet for future generations.
