Many, many stories of exploration and adventures in wild and remote places, accompanied by breathtaking incredible images, but which also reflect so much on the current situation of our seas, which bears the enormous problem of plastic pollution generated by the unbridled use of man.

“we must always remember that ” way ” does not exist”.
