Presented by Martha Holmes producer of Blue Planet. The oceans cover 70% of the Earth's surface and are teeming with life. Yet the Blue Planet is in deep trouble. With modern fishing technology, humans can fish almost anywhere in the world and little can escape. Whether fishing for the luxury market or the supermarket, targeting caviar or cod, many familiar marine animals are now highly endangered. Now the oceans have been put under such intolerable strain that we may be about to lose this valuable asset. Deep Trouble looks at the impact man has had on the ecology of the oceans. FRENCH VERSION: see ‹‹ Avenir menacé, Une - Les coulisses du tournage ›› NOTE: When you purchase the series “Blue Planet”, you will receive “Deep Trouble” as a bonus. |
