The film is both a sweeping celebration of marine life & a stark exposé of forces pushing the ocean toward collapse.

neutral · AI labelView post →Fuck yes! I didn't know the absolute indiscriminate devastation that bottom trawling does until recently, after watching Ocean With David Attenborough (2025). I was outraged to learn that the "Marine Protection Area" isn't actually protected at all, but that until the 1980s it was, when the Tories removed protections. Would recommend that documentary if anyone wishes to see what exactly bottom towed fishing entails.
