I hope that someday we will find evidence that there is intelligent life among humans on this planet.

We still have the illusion that the ocean will recover. That even if we do have to lose sharks, people don't understand why this matters. The evidence is in front of us, and we fail to take it in and say, "Now I get it. Now I understand."

I want to get out in the water. I want to see fish, real fish, not fish in a laboratory.

The burning of fossil fuels has altered the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere so rapidly and so abundantly that now, we are driving not just the warming trend, not just the sea level rise that is a consequence of the warming trend that is melting polar ice and alpine ice, but also [ocean acidification].

No creature on Earth ever has organized themselves in ways that we have, with the capacity to alter the nature of nature the way we have.

The concept of 'peak oil' has penetrated the hearts and minds of people concerned about energy for the future. 'Peak fish' occurred around the end of the 1980s.

The most important part is to take on the challenge of protecting the ocean as if your life depends on it - because it does.
