I feel a responsibility to get the truth out into the world.

A child born today will experience an increase to sea level of about three to six feet. The rate of change is so remarkable and so dramatic. We are already seeing the consequences of man-made climate change.

Coral reefs are the backbone for the entire ocean. They are the nursery for the ocean. About a quarter of all marine life in the ocean spends part of its lifecycle on a coral reef. And there are about a billion or so people that depend on coral reefs for fish for their food, for protein.

The question is not, "Is climate change happening?" Nor is the question, "Is climate change man-made?" Rather, we need to realize itʼs already here, and start asking, "What are we going to do about it?"

I feel a responsibility to get the truth out into the world.

We can and must use our combined skills at every opportunity available to address climate change.

I believe deeply that every one of us has an individual talent or trait that can be used to make a difference in some way.
