The Spanish explorer will give lectures at the UPC and the National Club on the defense of the sea and the danger that pollution means for marine ecosystems.
The Spanish explorer Álvaro de Marichalar y Sáenz de Tejada, known worldwide as the “Guardian of the Sea”, pointed out his concern because the oceans, seas, lakes and rivers of the planet are unprotected in all parts of the world, because humanity used as a garbage dump…
The solution, he stressed, is “Becoming aware of the due respect for the Nature that God created and that God gives us to live in…”
The “Guardian of the Sea” ensures that the future is in our hands. If we manage to educate present and future generations, we will be able to save marine and terrestrial ecosystems. To do this, we must banish greed and definitively embrace Mother Nature.
In a message addressed to Peru, prior to his arrival in Lima scheduled for next Tuesday, the navigation record holder, Academic of the Royal Academy of the Sea and holder of several world navigation records, including the Guinness for the only crossing of the Atlantic Ocean on a jet ski, will offer conferences at the UPC and the National Club on the defense of the sea and the danger that pollution means for marine ecosystems.
Álvaro de Marichalar Sáenz de Tejada is also an explorer and businessman.
Over the last 30 years, it has carried out 39 maritime expeditions, all of them aboard “jet ski” type vessels.
He is currently traveling around the world alone, aboard the smallest boat in the history of navigation.
Their expedition is called “FIRST Around the World” and is celebrating and commemorating the 500 years of the First Circumnavigation of the Earth, achieved in 1522 by Juan Sebastián Elcano, initiated in 1519 by Ferdinand Magellan and sponsored by His Majesty King Charles I. from Spain.
He revealed that his love for the sea was born from the curiosity provoked by the “always mysterious horizon of water…”
”Knowing what would be beyond what could be seen…: that is the spirit of exploration; the desire to know, the determination to search, the decision to take risks… that’s why I called my book, “Heading for the Blue Horizon,” he said.
Álvaro deeply loves Peru, a nation with which he is closely linked due to being a descendant of the Count of Superunda, Viceroy of Peru.
Álvaro’s boat is called NUMANCIA, in honor of the indigenous Hispanic Iberian population, which heroically resisted the Roman Empire 23 centuries ago.
