JEAN-MICHEL COUSTEAU: OCEAN ADVENTURES
Grades 7-12; 60 minutes each.
A generation ago, Jacques-Yves Cousteau revealed the oceans’ mysteries to
millions of landlocked PBS television viewers and inspired a groundswell of
public awareness of the unique problems faced by the world’s marine
environments. Now, 30 years later, Jacques’ son Jean-Michel Cousteau and his
team of "oceanauts" have set sail to explore dangerous and spectacular locales
across the globe.
101. “Voyage to Kure" sails to the outermost islands in the Northwest
Hawaiian Island Archipelago where diverse wildlife populations are found to be
struggling against the effects of pollution, mining, over-fishing and
development.
102. “America’s Underwater Treasures”. Jacques Cousteau’s son and
grandchildren return to the oceans to explore the 13 gorgeous, little-known
underwater treasures that comprise America’s national marine sanctuaries. Robert
Redford narrates.
