In celebration of Earth Day, USAID hosted a special seminar with Dr. Sylvia Earle, accomplished marine biologist, explorer, author, and lecturer. 

Dr. Earle's presentation addressed the state of oceans in the 21st century and provided insights on how we can balance the need for food security with natural resource conservation. Following Dr. Earle's presentation, Jerry Glover (USAID Bureau for Food Security) moderated a panel discussion that featured Barbara Best and Richard Volk (USAID Bureau for Economic Growth, Education, and Environment), with Robert Winterbottom (World Resources Institute). The panel discussed opportunities and challenges to ensuring future generations are food secure and ecosystems are well conserved.
