4) GREAT BARRIER REEF with Peter
Mauri chats with Peter, his scuba diving teacher.
Peter dreamed of being a professional soccer player, until a friend invited him to go diving in the Great Barrier Reef.
He became a world-wide professional diver and teacher, with a controversial opinion about Climate Change. Some topics of the conversation include reef threats, overfishing, coral planting and reproduction.
I always remember when he shared to me that what he does is not about diving or boats, it’s about people; referring to how experiencing coral reefs can change someone’s perspective on life forever.
In this episode's action, we go on a night dive in the outer GBR to witness the most spectacular act of animal reproduction, Coral Spawning.
