From the co-creator who brought you the groundbreaking documentary Cowspiracy comes Seaspiracy, a follow up that illuminates alarming -- and not widely known -- truths about the widespread environmental destruction to our oceans caused by human behavior. Filmmaker Ali Tabrizi initially set out to celebrate his beloved ocean, but instead found himself examining the harm that humans inflict upon the vulnerable seas. From plastics and fishing gear polluting the waters, to the irreparable damage of bottom trawling and by-catch, to illegal fishing and devastating hunting practices, humanity is wreaking havoc on marine life and, by extension, the entire planet. What Tabrizi ultimately uncovered not only challenges notions of sustainable fishing but will shock anyone who cares about the wonders of ocean life, as well as the future of the planet and our place on it.

But the overwhelming sense I get whenever I watch these types of shows is ... there's just too many freaking people on this planet. Too many mouths to feed. This marine life feeds billions.

The whaling scenes at the end made me cry and I wanted to strangle that dude being interviewed.

Overall, well worth a watch, and very enlightening.

This filmmaker was very brave, I would add.
