How do you see the future of our oceans?

 

"Fifty years from now, we’ll have nothing but regrets. Scientists agree that climate change is destroying marine habitat faster than it is land-based ecosystems. Ocean warming, species extinction and migration, coral bleaching, destruction of habitat… these are dramatic consequences and humans are to blame. Oceans account for 70% of the planet’s surface yet only 4% are protected. It’s a ridiculous figure compared with the enormous damage being done to marine ecosystems. Illegal fishing, dredging, plastic pollution, pollution from nuclear waste, tourism…. all these activities have one common denominator: people. We have to understand that ocean pollution goes beyond political divides. The ocean doesn’t vote. It’s not Republican or Democrat. We need to be more courageous in tackling climate change. Meanwhile, carbon dioxide is causing ocean acidification. Fundamentally, this is what will kill ocean life, starting at the bottom of the food chain. Diatoms [microalgae that generate a quarter of the oxygen we breathe] won’t be able to form their shells. I fear there’s nothing we can do to save the ocean. The clock is ticking for mass extinction. The problem is that we elect idiots who stand around whistling with their hands in their pockets when the world is on a cliff edge. Do I make myself clear?"

 

I love this man.

not good.  need more laws.  need to control people better.  can they build a wall around the ocean?

didn't the Japan Nuclear meltdown 'total' the ocean in a way?

Avatar was very average film. You are damned right. 

Never understood the meh reactions to Avatar I see online. To me it was a masterpiece. James Cameron is the greatest filmmaker of all time!

Cameron always been a doomer.

That being said, as much as he wants to believe it, he doesn't have the solutions.

Nobody has them.

Also, his way of life has "polluted" more than hundreds of very poor people, his way of life has always been about voracious resources and energy consumption for 60+ years.

Still don't buy that Vin is joining the cast. 

Sounds like you're right. 

 

 

It was great to have friend Vin Diesel come visit the Avatar performance capture stages to see how we do things in virtual production. — with Vin Diesel.

Kinda wanted to see Vince as Quaritch V2 coming in to be head of security due to Quaritches failure. Meanwhile Quaritch has gone rogue and causing trouble.

Or been taken by Eywa as her own Avatar to fight against the humans.

The Battle of the Bros in 2020 is gonna be something :

 

The Nolanites vs the Cameronites vs the Villeneuvettes

 

The Jenkinsettes could even show up.

 

Damn.

Damn.

It’s been a while since I’ve heard the term “Nolanite”. That certainly takes me back.

Damn.

The Bros are too focused on the MCU at the moment to care about anything else.
