As you know I have spent most of this year visiting schools and events here in the UK to share my experiences travelling throughout the USA in 2009 and 2010. I had some great experiences, saw some amazing wildlife and met some very interesting people too. I made new friends and discovered how many people are helping to protect the oceans.
Sadly, I have also seen first hand the terrible damage to the oceans from marine debris, climate change and how it is affecting food chains, killing corals and much more. I also found out about the terrible threat of ocean acidification to animals with hard shells.
I found out something that is also very scary - this is happening all over the world! So I have planned to continue my travels to find out more about these threats to oceans and all life on earth. Just the thought of it makes me shiver.
So in January 2012 I will be traveling to South Africa.
Until them, I want to wish all my friends (and friends I have yet to meet) around the world a very Happy Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.
