Last night I had the huge privilege of interviewing the great Sylvia Earle about the ocean. She said this, which really stuck with me:
"If Jane Goodall had been limited to studying chimps by hauling individuals out from high above the forest and inspecting what came up, she would have learned almost nothing"
But that's mostly how we study ocean life.
