Seychelles president issues underwater plea to protect oceans
Danny Faure gives speech from submersible 120 metres below the surface of Indian Ocean
The president of the Seychelles has made a global plea for stronger protection of the “beating blue heart of our planet”, in a striking speech delivered from deep below the ocean’s surface.
Danny Faure’s call for action, billed as the first-ever live speech from a submersible, came during a visit to an ambitious British-led science expedition exploring the Indian Ocean depths.
