Sylvia Earle
Sylvia Earle, one of the world's most influential ambassadors for the ocean, is a National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, former chief scientist of NOAA, founder of the Mission Blue Foundation, a TED Prize winner, and was named TIME magazine's first Hero of the Planet. Earle taught how actions the we take in the next ten years to support the ocean will matter more than what we do in the next one hundred years.
