"The industrialisation that has occurred in the oceans over the last century, mirrors the events that triggered mass extinctions on land. Industrial scale fishing, habitat destruction, species loss and pollution have placed the ocean in peril. The very nature of the sea is being irretrievably altered. "

Environmentalist, founder of Take3 and Ocean Guardian, Tim Silverwood will speak for 20 minutes before the screening and follow with a short Q&A.
