    Blue Vision Summit March 7–10, 2009 • Washington, DC March 7–10 • Washington, DC Washington, 7–10 • March Blue Vision Summit Blue Vision Speakers Welcome to the Blue Vision Summit Ours is and always has been an oceanic society. From the Bering Sea Land-bridge to the Jamestown settlement to the processing lines of Ellis Island, we have been a tempest-tossed people, a saltwater people, a coastal people. We have lived well on the abundance of our seas from the earliest canoe tribes setting fish-traps along the Jersey shore to today’s giant gantry crane operators unloading container ships in the Port of Long Beach/LA. In 2004 some 250 of us gathered here in Washington to help promote the sustainable use and protection of our coastline, public seas and global commons. Since that first Blue Vision Conference the seaweed (marine grassroots) movement has expanded dramatically. People getting so much from the ocean in terms of recreation, transportation, trade, energy, protein, inspiration, awe and wonder are increasingly demonstrating their willingness to give something back. The public is beginning to understand that the environment we all depend on does not end at the water’s edge. In working Our aim should be nothing together to protect 71 percent of our blue planet’s surface and 97 percent of its livable habitat we could justifiably argue that Blue is the new Green. less than the restoration Unfortunately, despite some success stories we’ll hear about in the coming and reclamation of a healthy days, the last five years have seen an ongoing decline in the health of our oceans.

  • Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES Based on true events, WHITE BOY RICK is set in 1980s Detroit at the height of the crack epidemic and the war on drugs, in a city rife with corruption on every level. WHITE BOY RICK tells the moving story of a blue-collar father, Richard Wershe Sr. and his namesake teenage son, Rick Jr. In a mind-boggling series of events, Rick Jr. enters into a Faustian bargain, becoming an undercover informant and later a drug dealer, manipulated by the very system meant to protect him only to be abandoned by his police handlers and sentenced to life in prison. This incredible story of the youngest FBI informant in history is inextricably bound to a turbulent, complicated father-son relationship. Richard Sr., equal parts hustler, schemer and dreamer, is doing the best he can to stop the cycle of generational poverty and despair, driven by a sincere love of his kids. His son Rick Jr., caught up in his father’s aspirations, willingly becomes the means by which to achieve his father’s ambitions. But all the while, Richard Sr. also attempts to hold their tenuous and fractured family together – both father and son are ultimately motivated by the love of each other and their family. Their city and government betray them - the institutional injustice and corruption that defined Detroit, the home they loved, would be their undoing. WHITE BOY RICK is a tarnished American Dream, an improbable tale of fathers and sons, friends and family, a shifting landscape of loyalty and betrayal, where everything has a cost, including love and the ultimate price may be survival.

  • National Geographic's “Strange Days on Planet Earth” Hosted by Edward Norton Returns for Second Season on Pbs in April
    NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC'S “STRANGE DAYS ON PLANET EARTH” HOSTED BY EDWARD NORTON RETURNS FOR SECOND SEASON ON PBS IN APRIL WASHINGTON (Feb. 6, 2008)—A series of seemingly unrelated events and issues are bubbling up from the depths of the world's water supply, forcing scientists and investigators to sleuth out solutions to some bizarre mysteries. What connection does over-fishing in Ghana have to a stench that occasionally overwhelms the coastal villages of Namibia? Why are majestic seabirds starving on remote Pacific Islands? What could be causing the flesh of America's most iconic fish, the striped bass, to melt? The cyclical causes and effects of these problems and the search for answers are chronicled in two new hours of the National Geographic series "Strange Days on Planet Earth," narrated by actor and environmentalist Edward Norton and airing on PBS stations Wednesday, April 23 (check local listings). The acclaimed National Geographic series dives into the health of the world's water system. Shot on location around the world, the two new episodes, "Most Dangerous Catch" and "Dirty Secrets," follow teams of scientists as they investigate puzzling phenomena in fresh and sea water. These high-tech detective stories, with the fate of the planet at stake, expose some surprising links between catastrophic environmental events around the world. The series aims to deepen our understanding of these complex issues and inspire us all to take action. National Geographic's "Strange Days on Planet Earth" is produced by Sea Studios Foundation in collaboration with National Geographic Television. The two-hour series has been underwritten by ITT Corporation, with additional support from the Packard Foundation and the National Science Foundation.
