Federated States of Micronesia: Blue Prosperity

In 2023, National Geographic Pristine Seas joined forces with Blue Prosperity Micronesia for a groundbreaking science and media expedition across the vibrant coral reefs and remote island waters of the Federated States of Micronesia. Merging advanced scientific research with deep-rooted Indigenous knowledge, the team revealed both the breathtaking beauty and delicate vulnerability of a marine ecosystem on the front lines of climate change. As local communities and scientists work together to protect 30% of the nation's ocean, the resulting documentary stands as a compelling tribute to resilience, stewardship and hope in the face of a warming planet.
