‘Planet Ocean‘ Directed by Yann Arthus-Bertrand (97 mins)

“Planet Ocean” has stunning visuals which shows how beautiful our Oceans are. The content has much variety, as it includes deep ocean marine life, fishing, coral reefs, marine life migration, weather systems and even shipping of containers across oceans. The scenes of coal reefs are particularly beautiful, and it is a shock to hear that a quarter of the Earth’s corals died in the last fifty years. Deep water marine life is stunning as well, as most people would not have the chance to watch those majestic animals swimming in pitch dark waters. I was dumbfounded by the abandoned ships off the coast of Mauritania, and surprised by the seaweed farming in Korea. “Planet Ocean” is an eye opener, and and I hope it helps to raise awareness on the urgent need to protect and conserve the oceans.
