When you first descend beneath the surface, it probably doesn't feel like everything around you belongs to you. Quite the opposite. It feels like another world. And we are people entering that world for a short time. We pass over a reef. We move between fish. We try to move without leaving a trace on the sand. Sometimes we encounter a creature we have never seen before. Sometimes we notice something only a few meters away that looks completely different from anything we could

Ocean ethics is not about good intentions or protection. It is about discipline, control, and entering the ocean without leaving a trace.
