• David Helvarg: Saved by the Sea

  January 21, 2011

  As a child, David Helvarg used to look up at the stars and become angry that he was born too early to explore new worlds. But soon he realized that the ocean is a unexplored world. As an adult, Helvarg became a journalist and spent his time exploring the ocean, and founded the Blue Frontier Campaign to help conserve the world under the sea.
