10th Annual Michio Yanai Distinguished Lecture
Looking at the missing tool of ocean exploration. As growing concerns mount frenetically for our planet's health, the undercurrent of urgency is towing hope and enthusiasm out to sea. Third generation ocean explorer Fabien Cousteau will juxtapose the perceived catatonia of progress with a brief dive into what got us here and the development of a unique platform for ocean exploration that stands to change the course we have set for ourselves; a tool to help steer our future to one of realistic hope and engagement toward solution implementation.
