SUMMARY:Author Event-Lecture/Book Signing: Free Library of Philadelphia
DESCRIPTION:﻿Download Press Release﻿\n\n\nThe Free Library of Philadelphia \nJune 20\, 2023 – 7:30pm\n \nJoin Dr. David E. Guggenheim — a Philadelphia native — for a book signing and lecture featuring his new book\, The Remarkable Reefs of Cuba: Hopeful Stories from the Ocean Doctor. The book was reviewed and featured in The Pennsylvania Gazette\, the alumni magazine of the University of Pennsylvania. \nSince 1970\, the Caribbean has lost half its coral reefs\, an ominous and accelerating phenomenon reflected around the world. Beyond the heartbreak of the loss of such exquisite beauty\, losing coral reefs means the annual loss of billions of dollars from the global economy and the end of a way of life for the billions who depend on these ecosystems. \nMarine scientist and conservation leader Dr. David E. Guggenheim has had a front-row seat to this disaster. But when he began a new chapter of his career in Cuba\, he found something completely unexpected: hope. After years of watching reefs deteriorate\, Guggenheim was astonished to come face-to-face with Cuba’s remarkably healthy coral reefs overflowing with marine life. The Remarkable Reefs of Cuba reveals the hidden lessons of Cuba’s reefs that could help rescue coral reefs around the world. \nWhile the past 60 years have seen the worst decline in ocean health in human history\, Cuba’s oceans and coral reefs remain remarkably healthy\, a living laboratory little seen by this generation of scientists. Which begs the question—Why are Cuba’s ocean waters so healthy? The answer is deeply entwined with the country’s extraordinary and singularly unique history\, from its dramatic political past to its world-class environmental protections influenced by an unlikely partner\, Jacques Cousteau. \nThe Remarkable Reefs of Cuba tells the story of the demise of the world’s ocean ecosystems\, the hard work of those trying desperately to save it\, and an unexpected beacon of hope from an island full of mystery and surprise. \n  \n\nDr. David E. Guggenheim is a marine scientist\, conservation policy specialist\, ocean explorer\, submarine pilot\, documentary filmmaker\, author and educator. He is the founder and president of the Washington\, DC–based nonprofit organization Ocean Doctor\, dedicated to advancing the conservation of the world’s oceans through research\, education\, and community engagement. He is an adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins University-Advanced Academic Programs\, where he teaches ocean sustainability\, and was inducted into the Explorers Club as a national fellow in 2008. He makes frequent speaking\, television\, and radio appearances and has appeared on 60 Minutes\, Good Morning America\, CNN\, MSNBC\, PBS Newshour\, and NPR. Guggenheim was previously Vice President of the Ocean Conservancy\, President and CEO of the Conservancy of Southwest Florida\, Co-Chair of the Everglades Coalition\, ­­­President of the Friends of Channel Islands National Park and Board Chair of the Great Whale Conservancy.

SUMMARY:Author Event/Book Signing: The Explorers Club\, New York
DESCRIPTION:Dr. David E. Guggenheim (Explorers Club National Fellow 2008) will speak at the Explorer’s Club about his just-released book\, The Remarkable Reefs of Cuba: Hopeful Stories from the Ocean Doctor. Guggenheim led the Explorers Club’s first flagged expedition to Cuba to explore previously unexplored waters along Cuba’s southern coast. \nBook Synopsis \nSince 1970\, the Caribbean has lost half its coral reefs\, an ominous and accelerating phenomenon reflected around the world. Beyond the heartbreak of the loss of such exquisite beauty\, losing coral reefs means the annual loss of billions of dollars from the global economy and the end of a way of life for the billions who depend on these ecosystems. \nMarine scientist and conservation leader Dr. David E. Guggenheim has had a front-row seat to this disaster. But when he began a new chapter of his career in Cuba\, he found something completely unexpected: hope. After years of watching reefs deteriorate\, Guggenheim was astonished to come face-to-face with Cuba’s remarkably healthy coral reefs overflowing with marine life. The Remarkable Reefs of Cuba reveals the hidden lessons of Cuba’s reefs that could help rescue coral reefs around the world. \nWhile the past 60 years have seen the worst decline in ocean health in human history\, Cuba’s oceans and coral reefs remain remarkably healthy\, a living laboratory little seen by this generation of scientists. Which begs the question—Why are Cuba’s ocean waters so healthy? The answer is deeply entwined with the country’s extraordinary and singularly unique history\, from its dramatic political past to its world-class environmental protections influenced by an unlikely partner\, Jacques Cousteau. \nThe Remarkable Reefs of Cuba tells the story of the demise of the world’s ocean ecosystems\, the hard work of those trying desperately to save it\, and an unexpected beacon of hope from an island full of mystery and surprise. \n\nDr. David E. Guggenheim is a marine scientist\, conservation policy specialist\, ocean explorer\, submarine pilot\, documentary filmmaker\, author and educator. He is the founder and president of the Washington\, DC–based nonprofit organization Ocean Doctor\, dedicated to advancing the conservation of the world’s oceans through research\, education\, and community engagement. He is an adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins University-Advanced Academic Programs\, where he teaches ocean sustainability\, and was inducted into the Explorers Club as a national fellow in 2008. He makes frequent speaking\, television\, and radio appearances and has appeared on 60 Minutes\, Good Morning America\, CNN\, MSNBC\, PBS Newshour\, and NPR. Guggenheim was previously Vice President of the Ocean Conservancy\, President and CEO of the Conservancy of Southwest Florida\, Co-Chair of the Everglades Coalition\, ­­­President of the Friends of Channel Islands National Park and Board Chair of the Great Whale Conservancy.

DESCRIPTION:Cuba’s Remarkable Reefs: Hopeful Stories from the Ocean Doctor \nDr. David E. Guggenheim\, founder and president of Ocean Doctor and adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins University\, discusses his new book\, “Cuba’s Remarkable Reefs: Hopeful Stories from the Ocean Doctor.” (Prometheus Books). \nFrom the Publisher:\n \nSince 1970\, the Caribbean has lost half its coral reefs\, an ominous and accelerating phenomenon reflected around the world. Beyond the heartbreak of the loss of such exquisite beauty\, losing coral reefs means the annual loss of billions of dollars from the global economy and the end of a way of life for the billions who depend on these ecosystems. \nMarine scientist and conservation leader Dr. David E. Guggenheim has had a front-row seat to this disaster. But when he began a new chapter of his career in Cuba\, he found something completely unexpected: hope. After years of watching reefs deteriorate\, Guggenheim was astonished to come face-to-face with Cuba’s remarkably healthy coral reefs overflowing with marine life. Guggenheim reveals the hidden lessons of Cuba’s reefs that could help rescue coral reefs around the world. Understanding why takes us on a journey through the island’s unique history – and our own. \nWhile the past 60 years have seen the worst decline in ocean health in human history\, Cuba’s oceans and coral reefs remain remarkably healthy\, a living laboratory little seen by this generation of scientists. Which begs the question—Why are Cuba’s ocean waters so healthy? The answer is deeply entwined with the country’s extraordinary and singularly unique history\, from its dramatic political past to its world-class environmental protections influenced by an unlikely partner\, Jacques Cousteau. \nGuggenheim tells the story of the demise of the world’s ocean ecosystems\, the hard work of those trying desperately to save it\, and an unexpected beacon of hope from an island full of mystery and surprise. \nAbout South Florida Divers: \nFounded in 1974\, South Florida Divers is a dive club with a long legacy of diving Florida’s reefs and wrecks.
