California’s Monterey Bay is America’s top biodiversity hotspot — and Frans and Christine’s backyard. 100 years ago, it was on the verge of ecological collapse with clear-cutting of Redwood forests and the fallout that created for terrestrial wildlife. Offshore, marine life was also taking a beating from whalers, seal hunters, commercial fishing, and unrestricted shipping lanes. Showing how Monterey Bay is a microcosm for ecosystems worldwide, Frans and Christine share its story on stage, demonstrating how damaged ecosystems can be restored when people care — and act — together.
