Sharkwater
Have you heard of the film Sharkwater? It’s quite obvious what it’s about from the title but if you haven’t seen it and you’re interested in sharks and/or protecting their environment I would strongly recommend its viewing. It certainly got my blood boiling!
I have been researching about shark finning for a while now and I’m amazed that the act of finning a shark still continues and is still legal in British waters. It’s barbaric and irresponsible and without any thought for the sustainability of the oceans and the future generations that will rely on them. It doesn’t make sense to cut off their fins and throw back the bodies, just for the kudos of eating a bowl of shark fin soup. Even if certain governments or government members are being bribed, potentially in the millions of dollars, from mafiaesque organisations to turn a blind eye to the illegal fishing, surely you as an intelligent individual would understand that eating a bowl of shark fin soup is not the correct thing to do. Consumer power can stop this happening!
Or do most people not really care about where their food is coming from and will eat whatever is in fashion at the time?? What do you feel about this. It would be great to find out your opinions?
