lyrics

You have to go now
Time was running out
And the waves were getting worse
Then, it slowly began

There are a few remaining frontiers on our planet
Perhaps our wildest and least understood
are the world’s oceans

You have to go now
Time was running out
And the waves were getting worse
Then, it slowly began

As we arrived at the coast
we flew over the largest continuous mangrove forest in the world,
stretching roughly 124 miles
Mangrove swamps protected coastal areas from erosion, storm surges
Especially during hurricanes and tsunamis
Barely explored and with little of its vast biodiversity cataloged, the mangrove swamps are lush and otherworldly places
The trees seem to teeter over the water
on delicate spidery roots
Neither fully terrestrial nor marine
the swamps are brackish habitats teeming with fish, crabs, shrimps, turtles, and mollusk species below the water, and birds and mammals above
If an oil spill occurred in the new drilling fields near the Amazon, these mangroves, which were far older than the world’s obsession with oil, would likely pay the price

You have to go now
Time was running out
And the waves were getting worse
Then, it slowly began

There are a few remaining frontiers on our planet
Perhaps our wildest and least understood
are the world’s oceans

You have to go now
Time was running out
And the waves were getting worse
Then, it slowly began
