why did they use videos of guys spearfishing in the intro? That's literally the most sustainable way of fishing.
-
How do we even save the planet if we can’t even agree that it need saving
-
Over fishing would be more like those big boats and commercial fishing not spear fishing or fly fishing or regular fishing for dinner
-
Love the message of the video— I don’t mean to nitpick but one thing I did notice was how you included spear fishing as an example of overfishing. Terrible! Why not include the obvious commercial fishing trawlers (both legal and illegal) that are the main culprits for the depletion of our ocean’s ecosystem? Spear fishing is literally the most sustainable and respectful way of hunting.

Man. We really are the worst species huh?
-
It got me thinking.. We all have festive holidays but not a single holiday to take action and give importance to nature.. Most people tbh, are aware of the problem but cant participate in the action simply because they spend most of their time at work.. Imagine if we have that 1 holiday where we do mandatory clean up action, I think I would help a lot for people to take initiative and see the climate change and pollution problem.. Its about time to really acknowledge and pinpoint the serious effect of climate change..

1 ton of shark fins are valued around $200K... How many sharks are slaughtered to get that 1 ton (of just fins)? Insanely wasteful and complete lack of morality.
-
It's sad that our leaders won't make the change to help protect the earth and the ocean small groups of people try to make a change but its not enough we need to collectively assist in saving the earth
-
I am amazed how much damage we have done without any type of tax on CO2, plastics, and other pollutants. There is no incentive to stop this madness, we talk a good talk, but sure are not slowing or reversing the damage we have done.
-
what Anthropocene means to me is that human-industrial activity has become an insidious, destructive and deadly 'force of nature'.
-
Takeaway: "It's fucking heartbreaking, what we've done to this planet"
-
“How humans f**ked up this world”
-
I planted mangroves in the everglades on the 9th and posted a video on TikTok under Sailor Shawn and the video got almost no attention. The algorithm should change to help show more eco friendly videos to motivate others to make a change.
-
Also, the farms(which I love farmer for numerous reasons) the leak of nitrates from fertilizer and pesticides will cause algae blooms which kills coral too.
-
great video, this sorta of stuff needs to be talked about over all way more. If the ocean goes, the planet dies. Not a tag line from a movie, its reality.
-
“It’s about creating a life you can still sing songs about” ^im going to try and live parts of my life by that, that was deep.
-
Shell will complete their newest plastic plant next year in Pennsylvania, producing an extra 1.5 million tons of plastic every year
-
We need to focus more on the solutions to climate change and showing the public how practical they are instead of just saying everything is fucked and there is nothing we can do about it.
-
If humans we're to suddenly disappear from the planet the earth would absolutely flourish once again.
