A dramatic and highly informative presentation by the awesome Sylvia Earle. She was a recent recipeint of the TED Prize for her dedication to marine preservation. The facts are frightening. Just one piece of data, 90% of the Big Fish are gone.
In her own words: "The next 10 years could be the most important in next 10,000". In essence, we have to act now or we are going to lose our seas.
Amazing video. I like the TED presentations. One thing I don't fully grasp though is she says 90% of the big fish are gone, but we also haven't explored 95% of the ocean. Wouldn't that realistically mean that 90% of 5% of the ocean's big fish are gone?
