Ocean Wonders

Dive into TED's archive of ocean talks -- from Tierney Thys' love affair with the big old goofy sunfish to Robert Ballard's jaw-dropping dives into the deepest deeps. Thrill to stories of adventure from James Cameron and Richard Pyle, and learn more about the science (and math) of the sea from Margaret Wertheim and Charles Anderson.

As TED Prize winner Sylvia Earle puts it: "Everyone should care about the ocean. Imagine the earth without it."
