00:00I always feel like that environmentalists, they always do the finger pointing and says, you know, you have your jacuzzi on too long and you're driving a big car.
00:10It's all about guilt and about shame and about pointing fingers.
00:14And that doesn't work.
00:16So I believe that in like in a fitness movement, you always want to make people feel good.
00:21You want to say you look great if you work out.
00:23Come to the gym and you feel strong, you feel powerful, you feel full of energy.
00:26So when I saw this movie, I said to myself, this is really the greatest way of communicating because you fall in love with the ocean.
00:48If you look at this film inevitably, you're going to fall in love with the ocean.
00:52When we were thinking about having a narrator, it was not an obvious choice.
01:01And Arnold is probably the unique one person in the world that combined two things.
01:08One, he is, well, everybody knows about his A++ actor and celebrity.
01:14But he was a governor of California, which means he knows all about environment on the political side.
01:22So he is unique.
01:23So thank you, Arnold, because that's really, he can bring really both sides, you know.
01:29When I saw the footage, I realized right away this is a visual feast.
01:34It was not just entertaining, but it was also from an environmental point of view, a message.
01:407.4 billion people on the planet today are totally connected and dependent on the ocean.
01:50You drink a glass of water, you're drinking the ocean.
01:53You go skiing on top of a mountain, you're skiing on the ocean.
01:57And unfortunately, all that poorly treated fresh water is going back into the ocean with everything we put into it.
02:08We're very sensitive to plastic and so on.
02:11What about what we don't see, like chemicals, heavy metals?
02:16That is a real issue.
02:18And now we are more and more able to communicate all over the world to start thinking about the fact that in nature, there are no waste.
02:29Everything is a resource.
02:36When you look at the ocean like that, it's always beautiful.
02:40It's blue.
02:40There is waves.
02:43But what about down there?
02:45And I don't know the percentage of people who are diving in the world, but it's very restrictive, very little.
02:52So we have to bring the bottom of the ocean to the people so they can love it.
03:01We have Trump or no Trump.
03:05We have to all move forward and not backwards.
03:09So when I hear that he wants to bring coal back, that's going backwards.
03:13The next thing will be that he wants to bring horses and buggies back.
03:17We don't pay as much attention to that stuff because I think that all great movements started on a grassroots level.
03:26If it is the civil rights movement, if it is the right for women to vote, we cannot wait for Washington.
03:33We have to do it, the people have to do it, the people have to rise up.
03:36This is what this movie is about, Wonders of the Seas.
03:39Let people around the world see that and then all rise up and say,
03:43we've got to protect what we have and we've got to protect our environment
03:46so we don't have climate change,
03:48so we don't have 7 million people die every year because of pollution and so on.
