Richard Vevers, CEO and president of The Ocean Agency, and Dr. Kelley Lê, Director of UCI Science Project, discuss the ways creative storytelling about ocean science can inspire a new generation of conservationists.

Using digital tools like Adobe Creative Cloud, the Ocean Agency helps K-12 educators around the world teach students about the ocean, its essential role in protecting human life, and our obligation to be good stewards. Richard and Kelley also talk about the “Create Waves” challenge and new toolkit from Adobe and The Ocean Agency, which invites students and artists to create art that not only raises awareness for ocean conservation but also inspires real action.
