David Attenborough's ocean film The Biggest Message He Says

Sir David Attenborough launches what he calls one of the most important films of his career as he entered a hundred years and one hundred years.

He believes his new film Ocean can play a decisive role in saving biodiversity and protecting the planet from climate change.

Sir David, who will be 99 on Thursday, said: “After working on Earth for nearly 100 years, I now understand that the most important place on Earth is not on land, but on sea.”

The film believes that the ocean is the support system of the earth and the greatest ally of humanity to climate disasters. It shows the oceans of the world at the intersection.

Blue carpet will be launched tonight at the movie premiere in the Royal Festival Hall.

It is expected to participate in many celebrities including Chris Martin and Coldplay, Benedict Cumberbatch, astronaut Tim Peake, Geri Halliwell-Horner and Simon Lebon.

Toby Nowlan, who produces the ocean, says the new work is not a typical Attenborough film. “It's not about seeing a completely new natural history act. It's the biggest message he's ever said,” he said.

This film records the state of the world’s oceans and how our understanding of their functions has changed throughout Sir David’s life.

Sir David recalls his first dive on the Great Barrier Reef in 1957.

Since then, life in the oceans of the world has declined catastrophically. “We have almost no time,” he warned.

The ocean contains some of the most graphic shots that are the damage of the bottom trawl (a common fishing habit around the world) that can be done on the seabed. Sir David said this is a vivid example of how industrial fishing consumes life from the world's oceans.

The new footage shows how the trawler dragged chains behind them sprinting the seabed, forcing its disturbed creatures into the network. They are often looking for a species: more than three-quarters of the ones that may be discarded.

“It's hard to imagine a more wasteful way to catch fish,” Sir David said.

The process also releases a lot of carbon dioxide, which helps our planet warm, but the trawl at the bottom is not only legal, but is actively encouraged by many governments.

Sir David said that the situation of the ocean almost made him lose hope for the future of life on earth. What freed him from despair was what he called “the most outstanding discovery” – the ocean could “much faster than we thought.”

Sir David said the story of the World Whale was a source of great optimism for him.

It is estimated that in the 20th century alone, the whaling industry killed 2.9 million whales. Scientists say it is the largest Kuhl in history, measuring total biomass. It pushes almost all whale species to the brink of extinction.

Sir David recalled: “I remember that's how it was. We've lost the big whale without coming back.”

But in 1986, lawmakers were under public pressure and banned commercial whaling around the world. Since then, the whale population has recovered rapidly.

Keith Scholey, one of the directors of the film, worked with Sir David Sir for 44 years. He joked: “When I first met David, I was shorts.” That was in 1981, two years after Sir David was the director of the BBC program, which was one of the company's top jobs. “He did one career and the next one left.”

Scolley said that although it is now approaching his 99th birthday, Sir David is still full of energy. “Every time you work with David, you learn something new,” he said. “It's really fun. And, David also keeps you brave because he's so brave, so it's always a very creative process.”

The key message of Sir David in Ocean Movies is that nothing is lost. The state has committed to protecting one-third of the world's oceans. He hopes his new film will prompt leaders to take firm action on that commitment at the UN meeting next month.

He thinks it might be a change.

“The ocean can bounce back to life,” said Sir David. “If you are alone, it may not only recover, but also surpass anyone who is alive.”

A healthier marine ecosystem will also be able to capture more carbon dioxide, helping protect the world from climate change, scientists say.

“We are ahead of us with the opportunity to protect our climate, our food, our houses.”

As he celebrates his 99th birthday this week, he is still struggling to protect the natural world of his life to show our glory.

Starting Thursday, the Ocean will be in cinemas across the country.
