After the harrowing experiences of Hurricane Maria in 2017, Dominica committed to transforming the island into the world’s first climate resilient nation. Dominica: The Nature Island (2023) follows the National Geographic Pristine Seas team as they partner with local leadership to conduct the first full-island survey of the marine ecosystems around the island. The scientific results from the international team’s weeks of work will help inform the Dominican government and its people in their resilience planning to ensure their marine environment’s irreplaceable assets continue to sustain the well-being of many generations of Dominicans. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/NatGeoSubscribe #NationalGeographic #PristineSeas About National Geographic Pristine Seas: National Geographic Pristine Seas is an exploration, research and media project founded and led by National Geographic Explorer in Residence Enric Sala.
