My journey had taken me far. And despite witnessing
catastrophic destruction, I had more admiration for the ocean
than ever before. I felt empowered by what I'd learned, and couldn't wait to put it into practice. Although I still pick up trash on beaches, and have embarked on a project
to continue investigating and reporting on environmental issues, with so many plant-based alternatives emerging for almost every seafood product
I could imagine... I realized the single best thing
I could do every single day to protect the ocean
and the marine life I loved, was to simply... not eat them. If we protect more
and fish less, and restore that kind of balance and healthy ecosystem, they've got a good chance of making it
through the tough times ahead
