Defending the pale blue dot
Lewis Pugh is the United Nations Patron of the Oceans. As an endurance swimmer, he has completed a long-distance swim in every ocean of the world and has pioneered more swims around famous landmarks than any other person in history. But these extreme swims aren’t simply athletic feats, each time he submerges himself into the freezing cold water, he highlights the melting of the Arctic sea ice and the impact the reduced water supply and climate change will have on world peace. Also defending our planet, 10-year-old eco-warrior and eco-artist Romario Valentine has organised 180 beach clean-ups, planted 455 trees and helped 900 endangered birds. This dedicated work recently saw him named a 2021 International Young Eco-Hero. Romario is particularly passionate about orcas, turtles, the Knysna turaco, and ensuring that children don’t go hungry.
