00:00The oceans are in a state of emergency.
00:07Entire marine ecosystems are vanishing with the warming of the seas, and as the waste
00:12of the world empties into our waters, we face the devastating crisis of plastic pollution.
00:20We are a disease that is infecting our planet.
00:24Our oceans are in trouble.
00:29We have taken from the ocean all that we want, and fed it back all that we don't.

00:40Microscopic pieces of plastic are easily confused for food, and end up being consumed by small
00:44fish species and even plankton, until ultimately, they make their way back up the food chain,

01:14historic international agreements, or groundbreaking innovation.
01:19And that their actions as one person on this planet don't matter.
01:24But that couldn't be further from the truth.
