I just saw a documentary (still in theatres) called Sharkwater; really interesting film. When you see all the shark fins for sale in Chinatown you kinda figure there might be some issues with overfishing, but I didn't realise the extent to which it was happening. The ecological damages that we are doing as humans are a total abomination.
Seriously, it was entertaining and very informative. I'd definitely recommend it.

In a similar, yet unrelated thing: Have you been watching Planet Earth on Discovery Channel? It is, quite simply, the BEST conservation film series I have ever seen, if you get a chance to watch it in HD, I highly recommend it. The cinemotagraphy is outstanding and the narration and music make it dramatic and real.
But what it all means is that basically it opens your eyes to how much world there is out there we don't know about and really makes you environmentally aware.
I will look into this Sharkwater thing, it sounds interesting.

It aired on BBC a few months ago, and you could even see a difference in quailty on our standard TV, cant imagine how good it'll look on HDTV. Was this the one with the slow motion shots too - how AMAZING was the great white chasing a seal sequence. Completely agree, it really did make you realise how much stuff is going on out there right now.

I saw the documentary as well last weekend, and I have to agree with you. I knew that there was a problem with it, but I didnt realise the full extent of it and how it is so majorly affecting the world as a whole.

I agree with Badda. It's a hippie thread.

I didn't even know that shark fins were a saleable item. I'll continue to do my part and not eat shark or other wild animals. Meat that can't be found at the supermarket, it's not worth looking for, except buffalo.

I ate shark once, not worth endangering a species.

It's a great documentary that's totally worth seeing. Nobody's making you guys hug a tree or drive a $@&*ing Prius. Get over yourselves and pay attention a little. You might accidentally care or something. People are sick and tired of being ignorantly labelled hippies just because they give a shit.
Sharks have been around since the first invertabrates. They are perfect beings, and they've outlived the mass extinctions of the planet. Their populations have decreased 90% globally and it is entirely due to controllable human causes.
