In this episode of Planet Visionaries, a landmark podcast series in partnership with the Rolex Perpetual Planet Initiative, host Alex Honnold sits down with acclaimed photographer, conservationist and SeaLegacy co-founder Cristina Mittermeier. A pioneer of conservation photography, she has spent her life capturing the beauty and fragility of the ocean and is now using her voice to protect it. From her appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos last year, to her new book Hope, the member of the Rolex family of Testimonees shares how storytelling, science and courage can inspire global action for the seas that sustain us all.

For nearly a century, Rolex has supported pioneering explorers. Over time, the company has moved from championing exploration for the sake of discovery to supporting initiatives to protect the planet. Through the Perpetual Planet Initiative, Rolex stands alongside the inspiring people who are dedicated to building a better future for all life on Earth.
