Racing Extinction

I only found out about this documentary film because it was nominated at the Oscars, it didn't really matter to me which one it was, but reading about the film, it did sound quite interesting actually. Basically scientists predict that by the end of the century we may lose half of the species of animals on the planet, they believe we have entered the sixth major extinction event in the history of the Earth. The first was the Ordovician-Silurian mass extinction, the second was the Late Devonian mass extinction, the third was the Permian mass extinction, the fourth was the Triassic- Jurassic mass extinction and the fifth was the Cretaceous-Tertiary mass extinction. The current potential extinction era is called the Anthropocene, or 'Age of Man', because it is humanity that has caused catastrophic loss, mankind are the only ones that can stop it as well. The Oceanic Preservation Society are voicing for the thousands of species on the very edge of life, and an unlikely team of activists are out to expose the two worlds most endangering species across the globe, these being international wildlife trading, and the oil and gas pollution. Director Louie Psihoyos leads this ambitious mission to call attention to our impact on the planet, and inspire others to embrace solutions that will ensure a thriving planet with thousands of remaining animal species for future generations. It is a film with a poignant message about rescuing creatures of all kinds, focusing especially on the legalities of how shark fin soup is made and the pollution unseen to the human eye brought to life, but there is also the part of you can enjoy the great colour and beauty of the world that we are trying to put right, an interesting environmental documentary. It was nominated the Oscar for Best Original Song for "Manta Ray". Good!

Excellent documentary with some insane reviews

This documentary is very captivating and very informative. It reaches beyond the general idea of doing what you can and shows you what others do and have been doing for a number of years to help towards animal conservation. It's message is clear, and the cinematography is absolutely breath taking. It's eye-opening, unnerving, and beautifully shot, and should be seen in order to appreciate the extent of this problem. There are reviews here which bash at the directors, etc for "flying around in their planes and cars, polluting the earth even more", and some insane claims that it's just promoting Elon Musk and his companies. For anyone who watched until the end, it clearly states "The filmmakers and SavingSpecies are restoring 10 acres of rainforest in coastal Ecuador in order to offset the carbon footprint of the film, protecting biodiversity, and increase species' chances of survival", and Tesla are shown for approximately 7 minutes, with a very short input by Elon himself. Watch this documentary, it's worth every second.

Don't waste another second in reading reviews and start watching it right now. It is worth the time. I really appreciate the hard work of the team behind this amazing shoot.
