00:00My name is Ali.
00:03I've been fascinated with the ocean for as long as I can remember.
00:07But this romantic vision that I always had of the ocean...
00:13...completely changed.
00:14I was forced to confront a side of the story I never knew.
00:18A story of just how huge our impact on the seas had become.
00:22Where are the big environment groups?
00:24They are deliberately not engaging with the most important issue of all.
00:29Can you turn off the cameras? Thanks.
00:31Would you say there's any safety concerns for me making this film?
00:40The safety concerns are serious.
00:42Ignore them at your risk.
00:44If you're getting in the way of their business, you are risking your own life.
00:48The slaughter of these dolphins is a reaction to the overfishing that's happening.
01:01We hear a lot about blood diamonds. This is blood shrimp.
01:08We are at war with the oceans.
01:10And if we win this war, we're gonna lose it all because...
01:14...mankind is not able to live on this planet with the Dead Sea.
01:18I just don't see how you could possibly enforce sustainable fishing laws with all these boats.
01:23The same syndicates that are behind illegal fishing...
01:26...are the same criminal groups that are behind drug trafficking, human trafficking and other crimes.
01:31So there's no slavery going on?
01:32Yeah, no.
01:33Yes, it is.
01:34Yes, it is.
01:34If you want to address climate change, the first thing you do is protect the ocean.
01:38And the solution to that is very simple.
01:40Leave it alone.
01:45Most of the positive and negative things that bring about change in human civilization start with someone.
01:51Someone.
01:52I hate the question.
01:54I'm a fossil
01:54I'm a fossil
02:03I must make it
