fading beauty

I recently watched this documentary in the fragmented time. It is about a group of scientists and photographers who have gone through untold hardships to record the process of coral bleaching (death) in order to wake up the world, guard the sacred land in their hearts and the future of the earth. On the screen, we saw a terrible scene: due to the high carbon emissions and the increasingly serious global warming trend, the marine environment has faced serious threats, and the colorful paradise where clownfish once lived has become a grave...

Finally, I encouraged myself with a few words from the father of coral documentary——

As long as I can influence people, I will. Because we have to. We've got no choice. Otherwise, you're not gonna like yourself when you're an old man. You'll think, you're gonna like yourself much more if you can say "well, I sure tried to turn that around. And maybe I did influence people here and there ."

  • Andrew Ackerman: They say it's one of the rarest events in nature happening and everyone's just oblivious to it. And you can't blame them for it, it's just almost typical of all of humanity. - Andrew Ackerman, Chasing Coral
