Plenty of excellent video clips available on the interwebs. This one seems very good:
Sylvia Earle: Legendary Explorer Fights to Save Underwater Paradise
Feminist Philosophers 
Sylvia Earle is amazing. Her work described in the second video clip is so important for our literal survival. And the interview she gives in that third video – amazing.
I wish I could give interviews and work toward saving the world from 60 feet underwater at around age 77 for up to 4 to 8 hours a day! She really is amazing.
