WATCH: Lewis Pugh on a mission to save the Wild Coast

Lewis Pugh


Time is running out - in December this year, Shell is planning seismic exploration on South Africa’s Wild Coast - this will be devastating for ocean wildlife.

Take a look at this clip posted on the Lewis Pugh Foundation Twitter page - it's time he says for us to "stand up for what we believe in ".

On September 7 Lewis became the first person to complete a multi-day swim in the Polar Regions, when he swam across the Ilulissat Icefjord, fed by the world’s fastest moving glacier, in Greenland.

Lewis attended the UN Climate Conference (COP26) in Glasgow. He used the story of his swim to impress upon world leaders the speed of the Climate Crisis, to ask them to move beyond long-term commitments toward urgent action, today.

"No one will escape Climate Change. It will affect every creature on this planet, great or small." Lewis Pugh
