, 1 edition
Surfer, freediver and eco-warrior, John McCarthy, eloquently and poetically scribes the true story of how a group of people, spread across four continents, came together to achieve the seemingly impossible.
It's a compelling narrative that shows us how South African open water endurance swimmer, Sarah Ferguson, reached across global, cultural and political boundaries to unite people with her world-record swim against plastic pollution.
This collaborative effort, organized by Plastic Oceans International, resulted in Sarah becoming the first person ever to swim around iconic Easter Island - and in doing so, raising awareness about plastic pollution and inspiring thousands to rethink plastic. Her swim is now recognized as an official Guinness World Record.
