"Turning to the Sea"
"Hope, creativity, and imagination will be required to meet the challenges that we face with our oceans. But they ore after all the traits that first enabled and inspired explorers to take to the sea. They are the traits that allowed us to look at our inextricable ties to our environment and to invent new ways to protect our natural wonders ..... In the 21st Century, these traits must lead us to preserve our living oceans as a sacred legacy for all time."
President William Clinton
