Are the next generation of young people proactively engaging in conservation efforts around the health of the planet they are inheriting? 

Yes! And we have the photos to showcase it.

Seacology’s Play for the Mangroves initiative is a nationwide program in the Dominican Republic that combines mangrove conservation with sports like baseball and volleyball.

Thousands of kids have already been involved in the mission to restore 66,700 acres of essential mangrove forests that help coastal populations combat the intensifying climate crisis.

The below images from the film Operation Restoration: ‘Roots’ showcase the renewed hope and progress being made thanks to the initiative.

Ian Walsh, big wave surfer “As athletes, ocean health and sustainability are at the heart of what we do – without the ocean, we wouldn’t be here.”

Steve Benjamin, filmmaker “I really want people to fall in love with the ocean, to appreciate it more, and to try to alter their behavior around it. Everything ends up in the ocean, and it’s such a dumping ground for humanity. My hope is that people see the ocean as a living entity that needs to be protected.”

Amory Ross, storyteller “How can I describe the ocean? The ocean is impossible to describe because it is endless; it is full of life, wonder, and mystery.”
