As we all wish each other a happy new year, let’s reflect on what actually makes us happy. My happy place has always been in the presence of our planet’s wild-hearted denizens. When I am truly open to the wonder and beauty of our living world, I cannot help but feel overwhelming hope for the future. This 2023 I’m looking forward to a new year and a new chapter for @SeaLegacy. Our small-but-mighty organization is venturing to broader horizons (both figuratively and literally) as an official 501c3 non-profit. Our heart and mission remain true to protecting our ocean for both the planet and people, and it is thanks to you that we have already moved mountains in the world of conservation to achieve that dream. Now, we are in a place to make an even bigger impact. Please join me, along with our team and my fellow co-founders @PaulNicklen and @Andy_Mann, in celebrating a new era. Follow and support @SeaLegacy to learn more and get ready to take this conservation journey further than ever before. Happy New Year, everyone!!
