Today, in honor of Women's Equality day in the U.S., we celebrate trailblazers that have pushed the sport of surfing forward (💪 more on this linked in bio) and leaders like @drkwilkinson driving change for #ClimateAction. In her work as VP @ProjectDrawdown, Dr. Wilkinson highlights how empowering women and girls is one of the best solutions to the climate crisis, which in turn will help restore our ocean. So, thanks to all of the athletes — the pros and the progeny — who make surfing and the @wsl's #RisingTides program so special, and collectively empower the next generation of water-women, for equality, and for the ocean. #EqualityCantWait #WomensEqualityDay .
