With this book, renowned photographer, marine biologist, and environmentalist Cristina Mittermeier aims to convey to the broadest possible audience, and with the determination that characterizes her, the HOPE she sees in the intimate link between human beings and their environment. Mitty believes that stunning visual storytelling is the key to unlocking critical action to help heal our ocean and save our planet: "I try to rebuild the bridges that create the vital psychological connection that simply says: humans cannot survive without nature—all of nature."
