With the worsening climate crisis in the Philippines, more and more local youth are stepping up and doing their part to save the environment. For Ganden Medved Po, 17, his contribution is “Life Below Water,” his newly released ocean photography book. Ganden is the son of Nanette Medved-Po, former actress and founder/chairperson of Hope and Plastic Credit Exchange, and Christopher Po, chairperson of Century Pacific Food Inc. Ganden is making a name for himself, as he has been a part of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) National Youth Council since July and is a staunch advocate for marine conservation. It was his love for the ocean that made him want to contribute to this cause.
