Siena Luchansky: Duterte cabinet member sails to Benham Rise, finds limitless food supply source

Exploring Benham Rise

25-M HECTARES OF SHALLOW WATERS
COULD OFFER LIMITLESS FOOD SUPPLY
By Manny Piñol

I just returned to shore from a 3-day expedition to the Philippine Benham Rise and I cannot wait to report to Pres. Rody Duterte what I saw.

The 25-million-hectare continental shelf east of Luzon could be a limitless source of food for generations to come.

But we have to protect and consrve it.

Here is a short video clip of that expedition.

Tomorrow, as soon as I am rested, I will post more photos and stories.
