All language subtitles for The Map To Paradise (2019)

The Map To Paradise

So, every night,
almost every night,

I walk to the sanctuary

with my little lump,

especially if there's no moon,

because during the time,
there are rocks on the way.

When I get there,

I have a little mat

that I can sleep on.

In the beach, which is open,

when I'm laying on the mat

and facing the sky,

I'm really, really happy
when there's moon

that glow the surrounding
and including the sea,

that I can see anyone that will
come inside the sanctuary.

And I can see also,
if there's no moon,

the stars, which is beautiful.

The falling stars
and twinkling stars --

it's really nice.

I asked the star one night.

I asked to star to glow more,

like the moon.

So, it gives more bright light

that can help me look
on the sanctuary.

This is what I imagine
when I'm lying in the beach

there in sanctuary at night

until I fall down to sleep.

When I was 12 years old,
that was the time --

my mother already dies
during the time.

She used to be the chief
of the village,

and she started
the marine sanctuary.

I was appointed to be
a warden on this place.

The idea of sanctuary is
to protect our nature,

wildlife, and animals

that are supposed to be there.

During that time, there was only
a few people, few creatures --

birds, turtles.

There was only a few,

because the previous generation

destroyed it.

What I see before

was the reef is depleting,

the fish is getting

smaller in numbers,

and the population
is increasing,

but the fish population
is dropping.

When I see any wildlife,

I really feel that
they are my friend

because I have
only a few friends there.

During that time,
I just imagined

that I just drove friends
as much as I can,

so I have somebody
that then I talk

and also somebody
that can help me watch,

which is only a few people,
anyway.

But I wanted them to join

what is on my mind
to keep the sanctuary.

I'm not thinking outside
marine sanctuary yet

during the time.

Well, most of the time,

we talk about fishing.

That is like our activity
on the island.

Almost all children

or young ones that
are like my age,

we are fishermen.

Second to that is,

we talk about the importance
of keeping the sea,

'cause we are taught
how to keep the fish there.

So that's why,
when I grown up a little bit,

I keep my friend.

The birds and turtles,

including the surrounding nature,

the stars --

we are, like, friends together.

Since I was a kid,
I respect Mario so much,

because he was famous
not only here in Apo.

A respectful man.

You could think sometimes,

"Can I do it the same as Mario.

He represents a model

for young generations.

I'm talking about a protector,

not just here in the island,

but also, somewhere
in the Philippines.

Apo Island
started the movement

for conservation
in the Philippines

in terms of establishing
marine protected areas

with the legislation,

with the framework
on how to do it,

and everyone's looking up
to Apo Island

because that's what

marine protected areas could be.

A paradise means to be

truly connected to nature.

When you wake up,

you hear the sound of the birds.

You see the horizon,

where the sky and the sea meets.

You breathe fresh air,

and not only that,

you see animals around you

and plants,

and you notice them more.

I think that's
what paradise could be.

Patrick is the perfect sea dog.

As soon as the boat stops,

he loves to jump in the water
and swim.

We are on the Greek island

of Patmos,

where I spend

a great deal of my time.

One thing that never leaves you

when you are anywhere
in Patmos,

but particularly
in the seas around it,

is its beauty.

When you are in this place,

you are pervaded and overwhelmed

by the beauty of the place,

and that is constantly

a source of inspiration,

and you don't want
that beauty to go away.

The older people
that have been worrying

about conserving the beauty

and the functions
of the natural world

all their life,

they have a long experience,
of course.

So, they have many things to
tell to the younger generation

and to inspire them.

But altogether,
we, as a generation,

we have been doing
a very bad work.

If you just put
your head underwater

without diving, just snorkeling,
just look underwater and see.

In Greece, there's nothing.

There is nothing left.

The water is crystal clear,
is fantastic.

But the sea bottom is so poor.

It seems like biodiversity
has been just knocked off.

And this is not just fishes

that are very sparse
and small size.

It's also, for example,
the algal cover.

If you touch the rocks

in 2, 3, 4, 10 meters of water,

you can see that
there is covered

with some sort of muck.

So it looks like

the marine coastal ecosystem

is sick.

The right thing to do

is narrated through the legend,

The values of the legends
have been the moral stories

and lessons to be learned.

Our past has really been told
by stories, word of mouth,

and really, also, by legends,

and I like to share the legend

of the insatiable child

called Uab.

One of our local mermaids
had a boy,

and she named it Uab,

and Uab had this
insatiable appetite.

Pretty soon,
it was the whole family

and the whole village that
had to satisfy his hunger.

Whatever crops they could
produce on the island,

most of it had
to be dedicated to Uab.

The animal husbandry
that they raised,

they had to feed Uab.

And also the resources
of the sea,

they had to feed Uab.

And he became such a giant
that the village said,

"There's no way
we can sustain our future

if we're gonna invest
in this one hungry child."

So in the end,
it took a whole village

to eliminate the child.

We gonna sail
back towards southwest,

stopping in different island,
different communities

and spreading this
very good message to everyone.

I try to keep my body healthy

because I have a very
big direction to follow

and a big dream to achieve.

So I hope I can still survive

for the next 25 years.

I need to have the bigger boat.

I have a boat, yes.
A little boat.

if I load five tanks there,

including the equipment
and a few kids there,

a little 1 meter waves,

we're gonna sink.

Luckily now the weather's good,

but not all the time,

all year round,
will it be like this.

We can have like waves,
2 meters, 3 meters,

And sometimes,
if you don't have a good boat,

if you have little boat

and your engine just,
like, as old as you,

you're gonna have to
throw boat in the sea.

And, you know,
the sea is beautiful,

but it's gonna be very,
very risky, as well,

if you are not ready
to face the bad weather.

Like, yesterday,
when I cross here,

I think I stopped three times

having my engine in trouble.

So, how can my dream
make it to reality

if I'm swimming in the middle
of the sea, you know?

My name?

Georgios Troupis.

I live in...

Beautiful place

from what I see
from all the world

because I born here.

From baby, I started fishing.

because my father lived
from this,

from fishing.

Must help him for a living,

and I live near to the harbor.

And always, I go to the boat.

Have a cold, have rain,

have bad weather, big wave,

everything.

But I start to love it, this,

to take my arms of this.

I like it, this.
I feel this.

Okay, sometimes, I jealous

because another boy
going to the school

and don't lost
one day from school,

and I lost because
I go to fishing.

And I go to Athens

and around the world.

Because I learned
too fast the job,

I go fishing with the net
for the big cargo ship,

and I love the sea

and the fishing.

And I think only,
"I must catch the fish.

I must have a fish.

Good fish, I must have them."

I sleep a little.
I eat a little.

I drink too much water.

And if I have 300 hooks,
after, I make another.

Before, more easy,
because you have a lot of fish.

But now if you like
to make this job,

must forget the time to sleep.

If you sleep only one hour, two,

my heart, look.

My hair, my fingers

feel nothing, my foot.

Too hard.

It's a difficult time.

Sometimes, come the dolphins,

and I listen.

Like dolphins so much
and love dolphins,

but some net fishermen
don't like the dolphin,

because take all the fish
from the net,

and after, don't have any money

to go into home to the family.

For the difficult time coming.

But how much difficult?

How much present,
I don't know.

But the difficult time
coming for people.

Because planet need help

and cry every day.

She cry.

The land cry.

The air, it's crying.

Everybody crying.
Nobody listen.

Nobody looking.

I think sometimes, "Okay.
I am no important guy."

I am one fisherman.

But I feel everything.

I see the sea cry,
but I can't do something.

Less fish every year

and too much people.

I hope one day,
do something.

No future anymore.

The fish less every day.

People every year more poor.

All fishermen feel this.

In Athens, in Piraeus,
in Thailand, and Europe also.

Maybe I am stop
because I am a small one.

The big one, it's okay.

The small ones, take the head.

Antarctica is a place

that I don't think
you can describe accurately

without coming down to it.

Antarctica's unique
as a marine ecosystem

because of the amount
of productivity that you have.

The sea ice that expands
and retreats every year

covers an area twice the size

of the United States.

What we're likely to have
down here is an area

that's got a lot of glaciers,
a lot of mountains,

a lot
of very dynamic topography.

You got a lot of nutrients

entrained in the upper part
of the water column,

and when you add nutrients
and sunlight,

you get an amazing amount
of productivity.

So, in the summertime,
when there's lots of sunlight,

you get a lot of plant growth

that feeds
the smaller zooplankton

that then get fed on

by the birds, the seals,

and the whales.

And so as an ecosystem,

there's probably
more biomass here

than anywhere else
on the planet.

So, right now, we're almost
across the Drake Passage.

We left Ushuaia, Argentina,
about two days ago,

and we're heading
south-southeast.

Yesterday, the swell
in the Drake Passage

was probably
about 15 to 18 feet,

about 5 or 6 meters.

The winds were about
20 to 25 knots.

My name's Ari Friedlaender,
and my main focus in research

is the foraging ecology
of marine mammals.

We're about to get onto
the continental shelf

just off
the South Shetland Islands,

and we should be in calm waters

and around
the Antarctic Peninsula

later tonight,
early tomorrow morning.

I'm always excited to come down

knowing that we're gonna be
in a place that's unique,

that has tons of whales
right now,

and is just the most spectacular

and unique wilderness
on the planet.

I grew up
on the coast in New England,

and one of the things
in New England

that you recognize is that
the Yankee whaling industry

was a huge part of why

all of those cities exist there,

and it was a huge reason

why people were able
to survive there.

And so I grew up
with the knowledge that

whales were really important
for people in some way,

but in a commercial way.

The history of the Antarctic
is not good.

Humans have been coming down
for about 100, 120 years.

Started with exploration

and very quickly
moved into whaling.

There weren't factory ships,
so when the catches were taken,

they had to find a bay
or a sheltered area

for them to flense them out in.

And, actually, a lot of
the islands that we go to,

like this one,
Deception Island,

was a place
where they would kill whales,

drag them into,
and then work the carcasses up,

and then leave them here.

In the 20th century,
over two million whales

were killed
in the Southern Ocean

as part of the commercial
whaling industry.

In the area
where we're gonna be going,

fin whales, blue whales,
sei whales, humpback whales

were all killed
in tens of thousands.

In the Southern Ocean,
360,000 blue whales were killed,

over 725,000 fin whales
were killed,

over 200,000 humpback whales.

So what we see today is
a very scarred ecosystem.

There's been a big open wound

that hasn't really healed
very well.

Tara Centurion 2-1-0
Mike Tango is ready on left.

We want a straight-out departure
and around the corner,

to point here
and back up the coast.

Centurion 2-1-0 Mike Tango.

Wind 3-2-0 at 7 runway.

2-8 local cleared for takeoff,

and that is approved
as requested.

I grew up
in the 1960s and 1970s,

traveling with my father
all over the world

to protected areas
in the ocean, in Africa,

in the jungle, in the desert.

My father worked for the
National Park Service in the US

as an international specialist.

So his job was to
go around the world

helping other countries
establish their national parks.

And I got to tag along.

So, I learned all
about national parks

in Central America
and Africa and Europe,

and I learned that

it's such a privilege
to be able to work

in some of the best real estate
in the world.

When I was 12 years old,

I went with my father
to South America to work with

the National Parks and Wildlife
officials there.

I got amoebic dysentery
in the jungle in Colombia.

I was canoeing through
piranha-filled waters,

seeing caimans.

In those days, it was before
the environmental laws

were passed in the United States

that prohibited
imports of things

like jaguar skins
and caiman skins.

So the wildlife trade
was booming.

And I remember thinking,
you know, this is just wrong.

In Costa Rica,
my father worked closely

with the founding fathers

of Costa Rica's national parks,

who designed the entire range

of Costa Rican national parks,

because in those days,

in the '60s and '70s,

those areas were unspoiled,
were remote.

Nobody went there.

So they created that

national park network
in Costa Rica

before the developers were there

or the poachers or the tourists.

Those national parks are
the last really pristine places

in the country.

After growing up
in national parks of the world,

I couldn't really do anything
but conservation.

Shark fin soup
is the centerpiece

of many
a Chinese-American banquet.

The delicacy can go
for $1,400 a pound.

Now in California,

which has a large
Chinese-American population,

lawmakers are debating whether
to ban the sale of shark fin.

Are you guys getting this?

This is absolutely insane.

This is a quality cuisine.

The most valuable
part of the shark is the fin.

It's a little bit
like the African elephant.

The most valuable part
of the elephant is the ivory,

not the meat or the hide.

Well, it's the same with sharks.

There's a big trade
in shark fins.

And if we don't do something

to reduce
the killing of sharks worldwide,

we're going to lose
certain sharks

very quickly on our watch.

We introduced a bill in 2011

when I was working
at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

We sponsored the bill

to ban the shark fin trade.

In May of this year,
the state assembly agreed

to ban the sale of the fins
used to make shark fin soup

by a vote of 62-8.

One supporter was
Michael Sutton.

He is vice president
of the Monterey Bay Aquarium,

and he helped write
the legislation.

Michael Sutton, good to have
you on our program.

Good afternoon. Why is this important?

Well, it's important
for a number of reasons.

First of all,
sharks are

the lions and tigers
of the sea,

They're the top predators
on which the entire

ocean ecosystem depends,

and they're in trouble.

My husband, Ted, and I
own Passion Fish,

and Ted is our chef.

We opened in 1997,

long before sustainable seafood

was even a common
household word.

Passion Fish has
never served shark fin,

but it was really important
moving forward

in the legislation
to have restaurateurs

supporting the ban
on the shark fins.

We were a part of that
as far as putting together

letter-writing campaigns
and being one of the restaurants

who signed on to say that
it should be boycotted.

More than 90%
of all of the sharks

have already been
pulled out of the ocean,

and I don't think anybody
has a complete understanding

of how that's going to affect
the balance of the ocean.

My grandfather and my father
both fished sharks --

sevengill, thresher sharks.

Those were really big
fisheries here.

By the late '60s, early '70s,

both my grandfather
and my father

stopped fishing the sharks
and refused to fish them.

You have these old fishermen

who are just so tied
to the environment,

and they realize
what is happening.

We're on our way.

I think it was
a very important thing

to do here in California

to send a signal
to the rest of the world,

we need to do more
to protect sharks.

California Redwood State Park,

consisting of some 10,000 acres,

mostly Redwood Forest,

two and one half hour's distant

from San Francisco
in Santa Cruz County,

was the first California
state park to be established,

saved forever from the axe,

to fill those who behold them

with awe and reverence.

The idea
of protecting areas is not new.

In 1870,
California established Yosemite

as a state park
up in the Sierra.

It wasn't the first
national park,

but it was probably the first
major protected area

set aside by the United States.

Took us a lot longer to decide

to protect our ocean resources.

I cut my teeth
on coral reef conservation

about 40 years ago, working

with the Great Barrier Reef
Marine Park Authority.

The Marine Park
had just been established

along the 200 miles of coastline

of Queensland.

It was part of a new idea --

protecting vast areas
of our oceans,

just as we have our land.

The first national parks
were in the United States,

and Yellowstone was the first.

And then the next
world park was,

in fact, Royal National,
as far as I can see.

So we started very early
in Australia,

about the turn
of the last century

when we started
with national parks,

and that process took
a long time to grow, really.

It wasn't quick,

but the marine side really
didn't do well at all.

There was a big push to have

the Great Barrier Reef
Marine Park started.

It was an emotional pull that
the greatest world Barrier Reef

had on Australians.

Out here behind us is

the Great Barrier Reef
World Heritage area,

which is, in my view,
one of the most important

World Heritage areas
on the planet.

This was by far the largest,

most of the protected areas
in the world

were pocket handkerchiefs
compared to this.

Decades after the '70s,
Australia was regarded

as the world leader
in marine management.

It was declared
a marine park in 1975,

when the act was passed
to protect it.

And the reason
that act came into being

was to protect it from things,

like oil drilling
and limestone mining.

Later on,
there was a movement

to declare the GBR
as a World Heritage list.

I think I can claim a little bit
of involvement in that.

Malcolm Fraser,
the then prime minister,

was staying
at Lizard Island Resort.

We gave him a diving lesson

on the way out
to the outer barrier

and showed him
a beautiful part of the reef.

I think if you actually see

and actually experience
a large fish gone past you,

it makes quite an impact.

It took a long time
to set up good marine parks

and perhaps the
Great Barrier Reef Marine Park

might have been
the kick off to it all.

This action will create

the Northwestern
Hawaiian Islands

Marine National Monument,

the largest
single conservation area

in the history of our country

and the largest protected
marine area in the world.

The Palau National
Marine Sanctuary

is our contribution

to the global effort
to restore our oceans.

It's time for the world
to turn a corner

on the protection
of our oceans,

and Australia today leads
that next step

with the most comprehensive
network of marine parks

in the world.

Now there is competition
among country leaders

to create marine reserves.

It's so great to see leaders

come into confidence and saying,

"I'm announcing this reserve,

which is bigger than yours."

Just last month,
we created the largest

marine protected area on earth.

It is now
twice the size of Texas.

Geopolitically,
south of 60 degrees is

what's considered
the Southern Ocean.

That entire area is governed
by the Antarctic Treaty,

which affords it certain levels
of protection already.

It's countries that
have come together

and signed
a particular agreement to say,

below this latitude,

all of this land
and all of this ocean

is to be preserved peacefully
and for science.

So every country that has
signed on to that agreement

has kept the Antarctic
as pristine as possible

and that our footprints are
the only things that we leave

when we come and visit.

Commercial whaling was outlawed
and banned in the 1980s,

but there is a commercial
krill fishery.

The most recent
marine protected area

that was established
in the Ross Sea

came into being
to try and mitigate

some of the increases
in fishing activity

that are occurring
in that part of the Antarctic

in areas that are critical
to the life history

of other krill predators,
like penguins and whales.

Generating a marine protected area

is not easy at all.

Honestly, the easy part is

probably finding out
where that area is.

The hard part is then
getting people to come together

to agree on a set of rules.

Can't just be one or two
countries that say,

"Okay, this needs to be done."

It has to be shared by
as many countries as possible,

and especially
in the case of Antarctica.

Yes, it is a lot of work,

and yes,
it is a lot of negotiation

and shuttle diplomacy.

And I was very happy
that Monaco played

a small part in that.

The impact that
the MPA in the Ross Sea

is going to have will be felt
down the line, for sure.

It shows what you can do,
what people can do,

if you can come together
and agree on things.

There's a blueprint.
There's a plan in place.

People have done this before.

You should be able to do this.

So this tag,
we're not gonna deploy.

We're not happy
with that.

I don't think we can get
the video off of that.

So we're kind of
down to this one

for the standard
video tag.

We're looking to spend
the next five or six days

in a number
of the different sheltered bays

around the Antarctic Peninsula

and around
the Gerlache Strait area

and Bransfield Strait.

It's a unique trip because
it's so late in the season,

and this is our last opportunity

to be able to work
with these animals

and view these animals
and just get an idea

about what they're doing
this part of the year

until we get back down here
next December.

It is absolutely critical
that we spend every moment

that we have doing work.

Conditions can change
very quickly.

So, if we have
two landings a day

where we're out on the water

for three or four hours
at a time,

we've got to make absolute use

of all of that time.

So on this trip,
we have a number

of scientific objectives.

We've been down for
the last month deploying tags

and collecting biopsy samples.

Additionally, we have a drone,

and we're trying
to collect images

of about 30 humpback whales

so that we can look at
the length as well as the width

and tell something
about body condition.

From my research and the things
that me and my colleagues do,

I think the thing that we can
show in a very simple way is,

here are the areas
in the Antarctic Peninsula

where whales feed,

and these are critical
for these populations

to persist and to thrive.

And we can very simply on a map,

show you where those animals go

and where they feed.

And if you are interested
in removing conflict

with any kind of human activity,

here's a very simple way
to show where whales are.

There's something very basic

and very humbling about being
close to an animal like a whale.

They're enormous.

You have to be in a small boat.
You have to be on the water.

You have to hear the breath,
smell it, even feel it on you,

and see an animal

that's three times the size
of your small boat,

that weighs 50 tons,

that has an eye that has
got a big brain behind it,

that is thinking about things,
that's curious.

To see these animals
in their own habitat

and acting and behaving in a way
that they've evolved to do

is quite humbling.

When we woke up this morning,
we were heading south,

towards the Lemaire Channel.

It's pretty foggy,
a little misty even,

a little bit of snow
and rain mix coming down.

The radar is showing
a large iceberg ahead.

About 1 mile
just coming out of the fog.

And as we approach the Lemaire,

which is a very tight channel,

it was pretty clear
there was some ice farther in,

so we gave it a go,
couldn't see a whole lot.

As it got lighter,
we could see the icebergs.

And it was basically all the way
across the Lemaire Channel,

which is very narrow
to begin with.

There wasn't enough room
for us to pass through.

So we had to turn around,
and we're gonna go back

and try and locate another place
for us to go to.

With the work that we do,
we're following the whales,

and we're following the weather
and the conditions.

So, we can plan all we want
for where we want to go,

but it's not up to us.

Right now,
we're at Palmer Station.

We're on the south side
of Anvers Island.

I think this area is
a wonderful representative

for the impact
of climate change.

The glacier behind me,
the Mar Glacier,

has been receding

since this station
has been erected here

and the face of climate change
is the face of that glacier.

In my mind, one of the places
that's the most critical

for protection
is the Antarctic Peninsula.

The water there is much warmer
now than it was 50 years ago.

The number of days
that are covered

by sea ice is decreasing.

It's also changing
really quickly.

It's a region that is heavily
utilized by baleen whales,

by penguins, by sea birds,
and by seals,

and it's a critical area
for krill populations.

And if we have an opportunity
to sort of stop things

before they get going in
terms of heavy exploitation,

we have that responsibility.

Today, in June 2017,

only 3.5% of the ocean
is under protection,

compared to 15% of the land.

The United Nations has a target
of 10% of the ocean

protected by 2020.

But still, this is not enough.

Scientific studies recommend

that we should protect a third
of the ocean,

30% by 2030.

And some people are suggesting

that we even should think

of half of the ocean
protected by 2050.

I used to be a professor
of marine biology

at the University of California,

describing how
the ocean was dying,

writing the obituary
of the ocean again and again

with more precision,

and I decided to quit that

and work on the cure
to this problem,

to help protect
the wildest places in the ocean.

We have inspired governments
to protect 13 of them,

covering an area of
4.5 million square kilometers.

This week, we have been at
the first U.N. ocean conference

where the world is getting
together to make a plan

to agree on what should be
the future of the ocean.

Bound by compassion and empathy,

we'll come together to make
a great sea of change.

As this conference
clearly demonstrates,

there's plenty of reason
for hope in the face

of what seems to be
a lot of despair.

We know that there
are actions that we can take.

And the new binding treaty
for high-seas biodiversity

can, to borrow a phrase,

be the next giant leap
for humankind.

It may make it
possible to create

marine protected areas
on the high seas

and protect their resources
for the shared benefit of all.

I urge the people charged
with negotiating this treaty,

many of whom are no doubt
in this room today,

to be bold,

to give this treaty
teeth and vision

and make it a game changing
Paris Agreement for the ocean.

I was honored to be with
Prince Albert II of Monaco

at the press conference,
launching their renewal project,

the Monaco Exploration.

And the explorations of Monaco
are going to help

to set some of these
ecological baselines

for what the ocean
used to be like.

But most important,
to help to increase

the amount of the ocean
that is currently protected.

The principality of Monaco,

whose entire horizon
faces the sea,

has always chosen
to protect the oceans

with the collaboration
of scientists.

You can feel that
there is a lot of goodwill

and a lot of good energy,

and I hope this will
continue in the future,

because we have
a lot of work at hand

if we want to save our oceans.

Big feature of this week
was not only to meet

other countries
and other organizations

and the other stakeholders
that are here,

but also to get them interested
and get support,

and very emotional
for me, as well.

The Monaco Explorations is
also a connection to the past

and to what my great, great
grandfather, Prince Albert I,

tried to do over 100 years ago,

to put his vessels
at the disposal of scientists.

At a very young age, I remember
being in contact with the sea

and swimming
in the Mediterranean

and snorkeling.

You know,
that only enhances your love

and being curious
about the sea

and all living creatures
that live in it.

The great figure of our family
is Prince Albert I,

and his not only
love for the sea,

but his interest in science
and a different sciences

and marine sciences, of course,

'cause he was one of the great
promoters of oceanography,

and he really spearheaded
a whole movement

to care more about the oceans.

And, of course, founded

the Oceanographic Institute
in Paris,

the Oceanographic Museum
in Monaco,

and led different expeditions
himself,

some 25 different expeditions

in the Mediterranean,
in the Atlantic,

and in the Arctic Oceans.

But also,
if you look at the writings

of my great, great grandfather,
Prince Albert I,

it was 100 years ago.

He was the first
to talk about the dangers

of possible overfishing
in the Atlantic mostly,

the need to protect
certain species,

the need for some sort
of protected areas,

both on land and at sea.

So his vision and his legacy
has, of course,

inspired the generations
that followed.

He has spent his career

doing whatever he can do
to protect the ocean.

Just six years ago

when the Mediterranean
bluefin tuna stocks

were in serious trouble
because of uncontrolled fishing,

Prince Albert was among
the first people

to bring the issue
to the world stage

and called for a solution
to protect the species.

Any intention
in any project to have more

marine protected areas
around the world,

be they in the Mediterranean,
in the Atlantic, in the Pacific,

in the Indian Ocean,
in the Arctic Ocean,

or around Antarctica

is vitally important.

The laws
are human conventions.

It's not a natural thing.

It's not an asteroid
about to hit the earth,

or climate changing,
or things like that.

It's just agreements
among people,

and those can be changed.

We are still a small
portion of humanity

trying to fight
for our own environment,

which we are a part of.

We might think that battle is
so uphill that it's impossible.

I think we have to try.

I think the moment is coming,

and the more we go forward,

eventually things will change.

The point is, when?

Long time ago,
in the 2nd of March of 1991,

I presented the idea of
the Pelagos Sanctuary in Monaco

in the presence
of Prince Rainier III,

the father of Prince Albert II.

It's not a very wise thing
to do,

but in the end, it paid.

In those years, Italian
driftnet fishing for swordfish

was running amok here.

There were hundreds of boats,

tens of thousands of kilometers
of net,

and the animals were dying.

We started thinking
about the necessity

of establishing
a protected area here,

which was, you know, going well
beyond the territorial waters

of any of the countries that
are "boundaring" here --

Italy, Monaco Principality,

and France.

Everybody said,
"That's a very stupid idea.

I mean, you cannot
possibly establish

a marine protected area outside
of a national jurisdiction."

If you are really convinced
about something,

I think you should
go for the fight.

When we talk about
the things that worry us,

we tend to give the bad news.

But we should try not
to indulge too much

into saying only the things
that go bad,

because there are things
that go well,

and when we have a chance,

we should certainly
celebrate them.

In late June of this year,

I had the great chance

of visiting the whales
in the Pelagos Sanctuary

with Prince Albert II of Monaco.

Well, we are here,
tens of miles

off of the Southern French coast

and, of course,
not far from Monaco.

We are in a very rich area
of the Pelagos Sanctuary,

which is an area that covers
87,500 square kilometers

between France,
Italy, and Monaco,

and it's the first
marine mammal sanctuary

in the Mediterranean
of its kind.

It was very difficult to set up.

I followed it from my father
and through the different steps

that led up
to the final document,

the establishing
of the sanctuary.

20 some odd years later,

we can really see
the difference.

Professor Notarbartolo,
who led this effort,

convinced others
to finally sign that agreement

in Brussels in 1993

to establish this
very special sanctuary

for marine mammals here
in the Mediterranean.

So international waters,

by definition, you know,
there is no jurisdiction

and no power
of establishing anything.

Now everybody's
talking about that.

There is negotiations going on
within the United Nations

about doing this systematically

in the high seas
everywhere in the planet.

But then, it was not said.

So it was a dream.

You know, I said,
"What the heck."

I mean, we need
to protect this area.

There is important stuff
that is in high danger.

I think it served as an example
for others

and in other parts of the world
to try to do the same.

I feel very proud of that
and very overjoyed

that the success
of this sanctuary

can be duplicated
in other parts of the world,

because we absolutely need,
in a very desperate way,

to protect more areas,

to have more marine
protected areas

and sanctuaries

in the different seas and oceans
of the world.

A couple of years ago,
some colleagues and I

wrote a paper where we took all
of the available information

about humpback whales
in the southern hemisphere

and tried to argue a case

that these animals are
at a level right now

where they were before whaling
in a lot of places,

and that
the conservation efforts

of hundreds and thousands
of people

and all the resources
that went into it

had a positive effect.

And we're now at the point

where we have to have
these victories in conservation

to say what we did
had a positive outcome.

And humpback whales
are a great example.

People care about them
quite a bit.

People put a lot of time
and energy into them.

I can say that Mario,
he done a lot for us,

because he always said the kids
are the future of the island

and said to us that
you really need to know

about conservation
when you travel.

You can also share that
to everyone.

He always said to us
that it's not just Apo island

that we need to protect.

It's the whole Philippines
and the whole world.

We're gonna start here in Apo.

When Mario said, "Mary Jean,

you're gonna go training
for divemaster soon,"

and I said, "Maybe I can do it."

There was a word
stuck on my mind

that women can't do it.

When it comes to
work in the ocean,

I can say that
there's no equality,

especially in guiding,
because men always said

that the strength of a woman
is different from man,

and woman is just
for the house and for the kids.

The typical island woman,
when it comes to dreaming,

they have a broad dream,

but there's escape on their mind

that even how broad they dream,

they can do it.

But it's also a challenge
for me and for Shane

because we are only
the girls in the group.

It isn't easy for
these kids who cannot work.

We will teach dive to them

to the professional
diver license,

and after, they can work
anywhere in the world.

And also, we teach them
to protect the environment,

krills, and fish.

So I really love this.

Become like my passion now

and diving and sailing

and teaching the young ones.

Now I'm teaching the children

to be environmentally aware,

and together with that,

I think, for me,
it's more effective

if I trained them
in scuba diving,

because if you are a fisherman,

your objective is just to fish.

But if you're a diver,

it will change,
a little bit, your mind

to keep the fish
there in the water.

It is my requirement
that we include the girls

to participate in the program

because they might
be the next leaders.

My target before was 50/50 --
50 girls and 50 boys.

So, I started like that,

but, you know, some girls
will give up for some reason.

There's a one time
that I feel like

giving up on the course
because it's hard.

I can say it's hard.

The suction cup
tags that we put out,

they're these multi-sensor tags
that tell us

about the underwater activity
of the whales,

and they also collect video.

When that tag is on the whale,
it has two transmitters.

It has one that sends a signal
up to a satellite

that gives us its position,

and then it has a VHF
transmitter on there, as well,

which allows us to get it
once we're closer.

So, when I first started
hearing the tag,

it didn't sound to me like
it was still off of the animal.

It sounded like it was coming on
and then going off, on and off,

like a whale that would
be diving under the water.

When I was listening
for the tag,

we had gotten a good position
from the satellite,

so I knew that it was
back in this bay.

The concern I had was,
is it still on the whale or not?

Because we had
about two hours to go

and locate that tag
and get it back

before we had to leave
for the South Shetland Islands.

And so if we deployed that tag
in, say, January or February,

we might be able
to come back down

in a couple of weeks
and relocate it.

But with the last trip
of the season,

we're the last boat out of here.

There's not going to be
another boat here

for six or seven months.

So if we don't
get that tag back,

we don't get any of the data.

We have very few of those tags,

and when you put them out,
it is never a sure thing.

It's far from a sure thing

that you'll see them again.

So, listening to those beeps,

when you finally hear them,
is a relief.

But that's only
the start of the mission.

You actually have to go
into all that brash ice

out in the middle
of the Antarctic,

trying to find these
incredibly small tags.

And sometimes, you're not lucky.

When we got
to the tag, though,

what we found was that
it was off the animal,

and it was in a big pile
of brash ice,

like rubble from a glacier.

And I think what was happening
was that sea ice

was covering it up
every once in a while,

pushing the tag under water,

and then it would let
the antenna come back up.

So, we got very fortunate
that the tag was still

in a place where
we could get to it

and that the ice
hadn't crushed it

or just sat on top of it.

I see my role as a scientist

as having a couple
of different opportunities

to help conserve
and protect this area.

First off is doing
rigorous quantitative research

that is unambiguous
in the results,

that can be defended in
International Court of Justice

or other policymaking arenas,

where if you say,
we need to have evidence

for why you want
to do a certain thing,

here's the evidence that
we've done scientifically.

Education-wise, I think it's
the other angle that we have

because as scientists,

we have the opportunity
to educate people

about the things that
we think are important,

the things that are threatening
to this environment,

and the things that we can do
to protect it moving forward.

Then I think, ultimately,
our role kind of hits a ceiling

at the level of where
policy gets made.

I'm comfortable
with the politics involved

in getting
these areas established

with the need to have
strong laws and robust science,

but I know you can lose
in the political arena easily.

Yeah, it's hard.

I mean, to be honest,

you're a scientist,
but you're also a stakeholder.

I mean, you can't --
you can't be objective in this,

and I wouldn't
want to be.

It's a place -- I mean,
California's a place I love.

The Antarctic is
a place I want to see protected,

and you do science
to try and push that agenda.

Yeah.
But who initiates that

and where do you go with it
is not always obvious.

One of the things
I'm really excited about,

being able
to spend some time with Mike,

is to hear his stories
and his experiences

of how you go about
protecting an area

once you understand the things

that are in that ecosystem
that need protection.

When people work together

from different areas
and different regions

that have done things
to protect marine life,

we can really only
learn from each other,

and it's going to make
every experience better.

So I'm gonna
take Ari up in the plane

to fly him over
the California coast

and look at some
of our protected areas

that we established here

to get a sense
of how important it is

to create a network
that's scientifically viable.

We're looking down
on some of the most beautiful,

healthy kelp forests
on the California coast.

The area really is
the blue Serengeti.

It's just teeming
with marine life.

The Monterey Bay

is such a haven
for so much life

People have said
that those of us

in the conservation community
are much better

at the
"I Have a Nightmare" speech

than the
" I Have a Dream" speech,

and we need to get better
at the "I Have a Dream' speech.

So, over a 10-year period,

when I served on the State
Fish and Game Commission here,

we methodically went
up and down the coast,

creating science-based
marine protected areas,

the biggest network
in the nation.

And I think
it is very important

as we move forward to be
protecting our environment

that we do the same thing

and make a similar commitments
to protecting our ocean.

Former Governor Schwarzenegger

was a big supporter
of our efforts

to protect California's ocean.

He saw marine protection

and the network
of marine protected areas

that we created as part
of his environmental legacy.

He asked me personally
to help him make that happen.

A lot of people were
arguing over lines on maps,

and I said, you know,
"That's not good enough."

If they're just lines on maps,
nobody's gonna care.

So I asked my friend Kip Evans,

who's a fabulous photographer,

to come with me
and we'll take the airplane

and fly the entire length
of the California coast

from Mexico to Oregon.

And we photographed every
proposed or existing

marine protected area site
in the state.

And there we took those pictures
and showed them to the public,

showed them to decision makers.

We both know that most people
that enjoy the coast

only see the ocean
from the surface.

They go down
on the beach.

They might enjoy
walking on the beach.

But unless
you're a diver,

it's really hard
to understand, right,

what's below
the surface of the ocean.

So getting up
in the air,

showing the complete view
of an area

that should be protected

provides a whole different way
of looking at it.

If you talk about an area,

and it's just lines on a map,
nobody cares.

If they see it for themselves,
it's very special.

They'll realize how important
it is to protect these areas.

I met a number of fishermen

on sometimes
adversarial grounds.

The fishermen had been able

to fish anywhere
for so many years.

They did not want
to stop fishing.

We would have
public hearings,

and a lot of fishermen
would come.

I think that the anger
was really fueled by fear

of how it was going
to affect their ability

to support their families,

make their boat payments.

And those were all
legitimate fears.

So my grandfather
had this 8mm camera

that he was really proud of
and took everywhere with him.

His favorite thing
to take film of

was the fish he was harvesting.

My parents would go out
every single day

in a 12-foot skiff,

and they would just
fish the morning hours,

and they would come in with
600, 700 pounds of rockfish

every single day.

That was the norm.

They were easily twice the size

of what is being harvested
right now.

Both my grandparents had
worked in the sardine factories

for more than 35 years,

and they saw the crash

of the sardine fishery.

So a lot of the foraging species

that we get local would be

the sardines and the anchovies

and even the krill.

So the whales feed

on these fisheries

and not just the whales,
but the pelicans,

the sea lions, the otters.

Lot of different creatures
need these forage species

in order to survive.

We are pulling out the fish

that the creatures in the ocean
need to survive.

Our marine protected areas
are very critical,

and I think that
they need to be enlarged.

So, what
really matters is,

what's the legal protection
for the area?

Are there areas
that are actually set aside

where you can't fish,
you can't drill for oil,

you can't do any
extractive activities?

That's the trick.

Each area is different,
but what I look for is,

who has jurisdiction
over an area?

Here,
it was the state of California.

Yeah.
So we had to influence
the state of California

to take action.

Yeah, well, you hope
everyone wants the same thing,

but that's obviously
not an easy thing.

Well, you've got
competing interests,

and it's hard enough
to get this done

where you've just got
one government to deal with.

instead of more
than half a dozen.

Yeah,
I guess the trade off is,

you probably have
fewer people

and fewer different
types of views

opposing what
you want to do.

In Australia,
there's a lot of reverence,

a lot of, you know,
love for the fact

that you have these whales
in that area.

When we do
the Southern Ocean campaign,

usually we head due south
from Tasmania.

When Sea Shepherd
goes down to that area,

it's not just to protect whales,

but also to protect
the sanctuary.

Part of the international
Whale Sanctuary

is the Australia Sanctuary,

so you have two sanctuaries,
one within the other.

So you'd think that would
be doubly protected.

What's the point
of having a sanctuary

when you kill whales
in the sanctuary?

The best evidence is to actually

document a whaling operation

and then demonstrate
where it took place

using the GPS.

So therefore,
we have positive evidence

that the whales are being killed

in the Australian
Whale Sanctuary

or the International
Whale Sanctuary.

Been defined as a sanctuary
not only by the IWC,

but by the Australian government

and by the International
Court of Justice.

The International Court
of Justice ruled that

the so-called scientific
whaling was not legitimate.

By 12 votes to 4,
finds that Japan,

by granting special permits
to kill, take, and treat

fin, humpback
and Antarctic minke whales

in pursuance of chapter 2

has not acted in conformity

with its obligations under
paragraph 10-E of the schedule

to the International Convention
for the Regulation of Whaling.

It was such
a long court battle.

Even before
the Australian government

agreed to bring that case,

we'd been campaigning for it
for about a decade.

And as he read the judgment,
we weren't sure which way

he was going to go.

It was really nail biting.

And then when he came
to those final words,

it was a celebration.

But of course, the celebration
only lasted so long.

They haven't stopped.
No, they're still down there.

We just returned with our ships,

got further evidence
of dead whales being taken

in the Australian Sanctuary,

and we, of course,
deliver that evidence

to the Australian government.

But they just turn
a blind eye to it.

When they lower the number
of whales killed

from 1,035 to 333,

that hasn't changed anything.

It's still a violation
of the sanctuary.

We have all the rules
and regulations

we need to protect the ocean,

but none of that means anything
without enforcement,

and there is a lack of political
and economic motivation.

So, the poachers get
to do whatever they want.

Well, the solution is
for governments to uphold

the rules and the regulations.

Australia doesn't
send a vessel down

to the Southern Ocean Sanctuary

and the Australian
Whale Sanctuary.

They did once to gather evidence
for the court case.

To be honest,
the Environment Department

is starved of funds.

They don't have money
to protect threatened species,

never mind to send ships
down to Antarctica.

We really need
to look after our whales

and they cannot
withstand hunting.

It's one thing to say once
a conservation decision is made,

you don't take
any backward steps.

It's another thing
to see your own country

currently contemplating
leading the world

in the removal of conservation.

It was the largest network

and still is the largest network

of marine protected areas
in the world.

Since that time, though,
with the change of government,

they have a proposal
in front of them right now,

which,
if they follow through on,

will be the largest removal

of areas from conservation

that any country in the world

has ever engaged in.

They talk about the first marine
protected area in the world

was down the Royal National Park
in Sydney.

I think it's something Australia
should be very proud of,

but we can't rest
on our laurels.

Many political leaders

are only looking as far
as the next election.

Most of the issues we're faced
in the conservation area,

whether it's marine
or terrestrial,

are very long-term.

Protection is only
the first step

in a long, ongoing journey.

Everything is changing.
The environment is changing.

The amount of coral bleaching
we saw over

the last two summers,
that's pretty horrific,

and we need to ensure
that we're dealing with it.

Australia was seen as a leader
in ocean conservation,

as a leader
in environmental management.

But today,
Australia's leadership

is not up to the task.

When the Great Barrier Reef
was created,

Australia was seen
as a global leader

in ocean conservation.

Today, it is not anymore.

Australia's so lucky
to have this thriving

and brilliant
scientific community

that has been warning about
the impacts of runoff pollution,

mining, shipping,
and climate change

on the Great Barrier Reef.

Today, unlike 40 years ago,

leadership in coral reef conservation

is coming from places
like Palau,

not from Australia.

Palau is a small country

but the huge island nation.

They have over half a million
square kilometers of water

around their islands.

They have done something
very, very courageous.

They decided to protect
80% of their waters.

No other country has done that.

For a fishing culture,
this is a big, big step.

Palau is a clear global leader
in ocean conservation.

First day we were here,
we had the privilege of diving

in one of the truly great
scuba dives of the world,

and that's the blue corner
where the coral reef meets

the deep water
of the pelagic zone,

and with the water
from the open ocean

come open ocean animals.

We met the president right here
at the Palau Aquarium.

The expectations of Palau
are very high.

President Remengesau has become

an international leader
in ocean conservation.

We need more world leaders
like him.

We're doing something
that our values

tell us we need to do.

We're doing something
that science

tell us needs to be done,

and we're doing something
that our traditional ancestors

have been doing over centuries

to preserve Palau
to where it is today.

So the moral lesson
of this mermaid

who gave birth to the boy Uab

is that the island resources
are limited,

that people have to respect
the bounties of the land.

There are limitations to
what islands have to offer.

And so any time you have
this hunger for consumption

and you don't balance it
with preservation,

then everything will
not be sustainable.

It took the whole village,
it took the parents to realize

that the child had to go.

Any time your hunger
exceeds the natural bounties,

then you really
need to eliminate

that insatiable hunger.

And I think that's really
the moral lesson.

President Remengesau of Palau

wants to leave an ocean legacy
for his people

and for the people of the world.

He's got some
of the most pristine

and beautiful natural resources

anywhere in the world.

The challenge for Palau
is one of capacity.

Does the country
have the capacity

to patrol and police

the marine sanctuary
that it set aside?

We met this morning
with Keobel Sakuma,

who reports directly
to President Remengesau.

The president asked Keobel
to manage the entire

Palau National Marine Sanctuary,

which is all of Palau's waters,

right out
to 200 nautical miles offshore.

So KB, as he's known,
has a tremendous challenge.

Today,
I met with Mike Sutton,

and I was able to show him
what we do here in Palau

to combat illegal fishing.

The vessels that
we have now in port

are from General Santos City
in the Philippines,

and usually, the catch
on the Philippine vessels

include yellowfin tuna
and skipjack tuna.

When we boarded
the fishing vessels

from the Philippines
that were caught here in Palau,

we met with the captain,
Ruffino,

and I think we were able to get
a good idea of the complexity

of the issue of illegal fishing

and the fact that
it's not just black and white,

it's not the bad guys
and the good guys.

Did your owners
tell you that even --

you have fish in your holds
and you go through Palau,

if you cannot prove the fish
is not from Palau,

that's illegal.

So no other way to go
from Indonesia to Philippines.

Have to go
through Palau.

Did your owners say,
"You go through Palau

to get
to General Santos?"

I said to my employer,
"There's no other way."

This Indonesia, Philippines,
General Santos.

No other way because
it's very expensive.

So your owner wanted you
to take the short...

Yes....route and not go around?

Yes.

Very expensive.

Very expensive, yeah.

So your owner want
to save money.

Okay.

That's good to know.

There are people out there

that are very poor
trying to make a living

and will do things sometimes
outside of the law

and sometimes being pushed
by the owners of the vessels

to do these things,

and it's a lot harder

than just throwing
everybody in jail

and locking up the key.

How long
have you been in Palau?

- Seven. Seven months.
- Seven months?

So, when you go back
to General Santos

or your village,

you tell them,
don't go to Palau.

Or, it's not good
to go to Palau.

because you're
gonna go to jail

if you go
fishing in Palau.

You tell other people?
- Yeah. Yeah.

Just as anyone
would lock their door

on the way out of their house
if they're leaving for the day,

we need to secure our borders,

because at the end of the day,

we're a small island country.

Really, it's a matter
of survival for us.

As we've begun
to crack down harder

on illegal fishing,
we've seen less and less sharks

and shark parts on board.

The minimum penalty for even
the possession of a shark part

on a fishing vessel
is a minimum of $500,000

and up to $1 million per part.

In the past,
we've seen vessels

with their holds
just full of shark parts.

But it's been quite a long time

since we've seen
catches like that.

Even the Vietnamese vessels

that have been targeting
the sea cucumber,

we've seen less and less of them
in our waters.

Since we've started
burning the boats

and putting
a deterrence campaign online,

having a big media event
out of each burning,

we have not seen
a single Vietnamese vessel

fishing illegally in our waters
in 2016 and 2017.

We're starting to see that

the collective
international opinion

is starting to change
and really adopt

what the Pacific countries
have known all along

and that not only
the Pacific Ocean,

but all oceans
are interconnected.

And what happens in one country

is not necessarily isolated
to that country.

I really want to say,
paradise is without man.

Sometimes I feel that way,

Like, if we are not there

and let nature take its course

and let animals of all species
just live and not being consumed

by our insatiable greed,

I think the paradise happens.

I think paradise is
already there.

The Homo sapiens is
also part of ecology.

It's part of the
interconnectedness of nature,

and we need to be
a good part of nature.

Getting to paradise means

legislation, policy,

framework, management.

I mean,
these are technical terms,

but it means protecting places,

not by just the mere declaration
that is protected.

You really have to work for it.

You need science.

You need campaigns.
You need the media.

You need the communities

to really work together
and get to paradise.

In our presentations,

when we lobby
for marine protected areas,

we use the data
that's recently available,

that after 25 years
of protection,

the biomass of fish around
Apo Island has increased,

and this is exactly the proof
that we show.

When I get
a little bit older

and become the chairman
of the marine sanctuary,

I start to expand my protection
a little bit around Apo Island.

So, it's getting
bigger and bigger.

This dream is not on my mind
when we started the sanctuary.

I'm just focusing first
on sanctuary

and slowly expanding
and expanding around Apo

and slowly expanding
a little bit to more people.

And now we are expanding
outside Apo.

I think it just comes
slowly on my mind

to expand more,
getting more bigger.

Maybe because I'm getting older,

so my my idea is getting
broader and bigger.

My grandfather always
caught a shark every morning,

three, four, five
every morning.

Mario, he organized
to stop getting a shark.

He protect sharks, mantas,

bats, turtles, birds, crabs,

mangrove trees,
any kind of trees.

You cut that,
he put you in jail,

Even though you are his brother,
do that,

he put you in jail.

I'm dreaming also,

to follow the step of Mario.

There's a lot of youth
in the island

who wants to participate in it.

When I just walk on the street,
and they said,

"When you finish
your divemaster,

I want also to try diving,

and you will be the one
who will guide me."

I was amazed because 13-,
12-years-old kids

already engaging for diving.

The three kids who came
to the dive ship was Diem,

also Lovely,
and my brother Jupe.

I was surprised then when I saw
him preparing for the dive.

because he's always
with his friends,

just roaming around the island.

After seven years
working with children,

teaching with the children about
how to look after our seas,

and we trained them
scuba diving, as well,

six of them will finish
their divemaster course.

I'm very excited now
that this afternoon,

we will hand them
the certificate

to prove that they finished
all requirement necessary

in order for them
to be at that level.

Mary Jean!

I say to myself...

that I will train the children
of the people of this island

in what I do before
it was just memories.

And these new guys in front,

you are facing a big challenge,
as well.

You need to share what
you learned form us

to other youth in other places,

not only on our land,

but to other
fishing communities around.

I'm very excited,
because after today,

our main job will start to teach
other people in other places.

On the 25th,
we will build...to start

the beginning of the main goal

of this program.

You need to share why,

because if you protect only Apo,

that's useless.

We need to protect
the whole Philippines,

and if possible, to whole world.

We made
a big celebration

and party for that kids.

On Apo, it's very special
because it's, for me,

the the beginning of something

greater than us.

Now, today, we have six
professional-level divemaster,

and two of them are young girls.

Apo was the beginning.

Just the beginning.

Every day
as we breathe in the air,

especially out
in the middle of the sea --

which I love very much

because I've grown up
in the sea --

there are some magic sometimes
that come in my head

that comes when you get older.

Then the dream also
becomes bigger,

and sometimes I say
that it's an impossible dream,

but I have a courage also
to make my dream happen.

Like yesterday,
when I cross here,

I think I stopped three times
having my engine in trouble

because I have a boat man there,
but this is another thing,

that you need to train
your boat man properly

because there's
a little problem there,

but he cannot correct.

So probably
if I was not there --

I don't know --
maybe they will be blown away.

If I don't have knowledge
about boat or engine,

we're gonna be drift towards
Basilan or Southern Mindanao,

going together
with the stale wrist.

We are now in a little beach
in Siquijor to start the program

here in this little community,

which is also
a fishing community.

We're scheduled
to meet the mayor

and hopefully the mayor can see

the importance of this program

because the goal of
landing here in Siquijor

is to train one community
for free

in condition that once
they complete the whole program,

they will expand also to
the neighboring communities.

I don't need to go around
the whole entire island,

which is composed
of eight towns

and probably around a couple
of hundreds of communities.

Part of this big dream
is to expand this,

at least in Central Philippines,

and if I can do this in the
entire country of Philippines,

maybe expand also outside
the country if I have time.

You dream every day,

and you dream for the purpose.

You daydream.

You just think ahead
about the good things you do.
