Happy Cousteau Day! Do something nice for the planet today to celebrate!

Happy Cousteau Day!
Today we celebrate the people who fight to protect the planet for current and future generations, as the Captain did. Jacques-Yves Cousteau was a pioneer in ocean exploration and, through this, he also became a pioneer in the ocean's protection.
Today the Cousteau organizations continue his work and follow his path of knowledge, love and protection for our blue planet. We are joined in this continuous battle by people all over the world who fight to preserve the fragile symphony on which all life depends.
Cousteau Day is dedicated to those who love the planet.

"People protect what they love."
Jacques-Yves Cousteau
