'The ocean is our life-support system': Kerstin Forsberg on why we must protect our seas
CNN
Peruvian biologist Kerstin Forsberg tells CNN why marine conservation is essential to our future.
After finishing her degree, the Peruvian biologist began working on a sea turtle protection project in the north of the country. Two years later, in 2009, Forsberg founded "Planeta Océano," an organization that aims to empower local communities to look after the ocean. Its work with giant manta rays led to Peru's government granting the species legal protection.More Related News
