SUMMARY:SCUBA & H2O Adventure Show 2014 - Seattle\, Washington
DESCRIPTION:Ocean Doctor president\, Dr. David E. Guggenheim\,presents\, A Living Time Machine: Cuba’s Spectacular Ocean Ecosystems and the Hope they Offer the World.”   \nNamed by Christopher Columbus to honor Queen Isabella of Spain\, the Gardens of the Queen (Jardines de la Reina) are one of the healthiest coral reef ecosystems remaining in the Caribbean. In a world where coral reefs are dying\, the corals in the Gardens of the Queen are flourishing\, and like a living time machine\, the Gardens likely resemble the healthy coral reefs Columbus saw\, avoiding the rapid decline so common throughout the Caribbean and the rest of the world. \nWhat makes this ecosystem so healthy? What are the implications for coral reefs elsewhere? What is the role of diving in this special ecosystem? And how is this ecosystem bringing Americans and Cubans closer together? What is so compelling about this Cuban ecosystem that 60 Minutes sent Anderson Cooper and a camera crew to work with Dr. Guggenheim and Cuban scientists? \nNow at last\, American divers can legally visit Cuba’s Gardens of the Queen as part of a special\, licensed educational people-to-people program led by Ocean Doctor and hosted by Avalon Cuban Diving Centers in the heart of Gardens of the Queen. You can find details at OceanDoctor.org/Gardens. \nDr. Guggenheim’s talk will be at the Poseidon Pavilion

SUMMARY:Earth Day 2014: Whales at the White House
DESCRIPTION:“Mz. Blue\,” a Life-Sized 90-Foot Inflatable Blue Whale\, in Washington\, DC’s Freedom Plaza in 2013  \nJoin Dr. Sylvia A. Earle\, Founder\, Mission Blue/Sylvia Earle Alliance\, along with Dr. David E. Guggenheim\, the “Ocean Doctor” (president of Ocean Doctor and Board Member of the Great Whale Conservancy)\, with Michael Fishbach and Dr. Gershon Cohen\, Co-Directors of the Great Whale Conservancy\, for a unique Earth Day event on Tuesday\, April 22nd\, 2014 (Earth Day) at 2pm ET on the Ellipse below the South Lawn of the White House in Washington\, DC. \n\nSpecial Guest of Honor: Mz Blue\, Great Whale Conservancy’s life-size 90-foot blue whale inflatable (see photo to right)! \nPurpose:  To ask President Obama to direct the Navy to remove its objection to the use of an alternate shipping lane in California waters to reduce the killing of blue whales from ship strikes.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nEarth Day Speakers\n\n\n\nDr. Sylvia A. Earle\, Founder\, Mission Blue/Sylvia Earle Alliance; National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence \n\n\nDr. Gershon Cohen\, Co-Director\, Great Whale Conservancy \n\n\nMichael Fishbach\, Co-Director\, Great Whale Conservancy \n\n\nDr. David E. Guggenheim\, President\, Ocean Doctor; Board Member\, Great Whale Conservancy \n\n\n\n\nBackground: The officially sanctioned commercial shipping transit lane along the Southern California coast cuts through critical blue whale feeding habitat.  “Ship strikes” – collisions between the whales and the ships result in many whale deaths. \nBlue whales may be the largest animal to ever live on Earth\, and they are remarkably intelligent and agile\, but they are dwarfed by these ships which are usually unaware a strike has even occurred. No one knows why the blue whales are often unable to avoid the ships\, it might be due to the noise from multiple vessels or because they are so focused on feeding – blue whales must consume tons of krill every day to survive.    There is an alternate shipping route\, supported by the Coast Guard\, which if used during the four critical months of July-October could reduce the number of ship strikes on blue whales by 80-90%.  Members of the industry have stated their willingness to consider using an alternate shipping lane if the Navy’s objection is dropped.    Great Whale Conservancy will be submitting a letter to the White House regarding this matter signed by NGO’s working around the world to protect whales\, along with ~120\,000 signatures from an on-line petition.   \n\n\n\n[youtube E1SwJfny2qs 560 340]\n\n\n\n  \nDownload the Press Release:\n\n\n\n[wpfilebase tag=file id=37 tpl=’dg_custom1′ /]\n\n\n                                                                                                                       \n\n\n\n  \n  \n
