Philippe Cousteau on Why Coral Reefs Are Disappearing and How to Rebuild Them (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor but support 25% of all marine life, and since the 1950s, we've lost half of them.

The Green Sea Turtle's Impossible Comeback with Jeff Corwin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
