Sharkwater

Last summer Hanna told me about this film. Sharkwater is a documentary aimed at raising awareness of the situation of sharks today. Shortly said, hundreds of thousands of sharks are killed every year, but that's not enough. The people are after their fins, they use longlines, catching anything and everything, pulling the sharks up and brutally cutting off their fins with a knife just to throw them back into the ocean again. The sharks unable to swim sink to the bottom of the ocean where it slowly drowns or is eaten alive.


Trailer
If you want to watch the entire film you can see it HERE on youtube. I strongly recommend to see this documentary but I will prepare you for tears. Lots of tears...

A simple way to help is to refuse to eat at any restaurant that serves shark fin soup! Which many asian reastaurants do.... Walk out and make sure to state your reason clearly!
