    The Coronavirus has changed things so dramatically for so many people. It has also prevented us from doing the things we used to do everyday. So I asked my friends and family to send their future selves a voicemail reminding them to do the things they miss the most.

    Seeding the Sea
    Award of Excellence
    Multimedia: Group Story or Essay - Standalone
     
    Where fishermen were once able to catch over 100 pounds of fish in one day off the coast of Belize, now they can barely catch a fraction of that. Seaweed farming offers a more sustainable alternative for both the economy and environment. Lowell Godfrey has grown up in Placencia, and now has his own seaweed farm that he hopes will show other fishermen that they can make their livelihood in a sustainable way. Filmed and edited by Caroline Almy and Sarah Redmond
