Sink or Swim: Learning the Crawl in the Maldives. National Geographic "ocean hero" Jon Bowermaster organized a learn-to-swim camp in the Maldives to teach 50 third graders and 20 of their burka-clad mothers how to swim. In a place more threatened by global climate change and rising sea levels than almost anywhere on the planet, it is important that its residents understand what is at risk. Amidst the challenges of overfishing, plastic pollution, and rising sea levels, this heartwarming documentary highlights the importance of connecting with the ocean and becoming its guardians. Through the joy of exploration beneath the waves, these families discover a newfound appreciation for the underwater world and a sense of responsibility to protect it. Diving into the ocean is a big first step!
