“I travel all over the country speaking to young people, and I am always amazed a…” — Philippe Cousteau, Jr.

My father's plan was, we were going to grow up and travel the world.

One of my big pet peeves is single-use plastic bags. I think it's one of the stupidest ideas in the world.

I hate plastic bottles. Just think about it before you buy one. We pay more for a gallon of water than we do for a gallon of gas. I think people will realize that water quality standards in most municipalities are as good or better for the stuff coming out of the tap than bottled water companies. You'll save money and save the environment, too.
