This non-fiction book describes in great detail all the different attacks of the so-called McCarthy period. The book starts in 1946 and talks about the far-reaching attacks: book bans, attacks on people’s reputations based on hearsay, firings in Hollywood and industry, attacks on anyone who questioned or challenged the status quo or the injustices of capitalist society, censorship in schools and universities. No segment of society was untouched by this climate of fear and hate.
This documentary reveals how much we have learned of the ocean, how modern times have revealed the amazing complexity of this, the earth’s last frontier. He explains with wonder the latest discoveries.
But the film also shows the grave danger the ocean is in. How bottom trawlers and huge industrial factory ships are dredging the ocean floor for profit, killing everything in their wake. Nothing but wasteland remains. Also, how global warming is killing the coral reefs and all the life that abides there.
He has hope though. He offers the hope that the ocean can recover when areas are protected, and if one-third is protected, recovery would be sustainable.
