We need a new global culture that finds the existence of millions of thirsty people thoroughly and immediately unacceptable.

Is it too late to prevent us from self-destructing? No, for we have the capacity to design our own future, to take a lesson from living things around us and bring our values and actions in line with ecological necessity. But we must first realize that ecological and social and economic issues are all deeply intertwined. There can be no solution to one without a solution to the others.

To me the foundation of all life is in the ocean.

People will protect what they love.

We have the ability to provide clean water for every man, woman and child on the Earth. What has been lacking is the collective will to accomplish this. What are we waiting for? This is the commitment we need to make to the world, now.

Every breath of air we take is coming from the ocean.

Clean water, the essence of life and a birthright for everyone, must become available to all people now.
