Go See SHARKWATER

I don't have the time to write a posting that sufficiently outlines the plight of sharks and urges you to attend next week's screening of the important film SHARKWATER. Fortunately, a picture can take the place of me writing 1,000 words:



Now multiply that image a multi-millionfold, and you may begin to wrap your mind (and hopefully your heart) around the scope of the extermination of one of nature's grandest and oldest creatures. Imagine what it must be like for a shark to be pulled out of the water, have its fins sliced off, then thrown back to die a slow death by drowning or being eaten alive. Again, expand your imagination to picture this happening on a scale of millions, and you begin to understand.

What's the industry behind this slaughter like? Apparently it's not unlike the Mafia or a drug cartel. Find out what happened to filmmaker Rob Stewart when he began to scratch the surface and got way more than he bargained for. Find out what's being done to sharks on a global scale before it's too late. Find out, then speak out.

Tickets for next week's screening of SHARKWATER are running out. Get yours now. We're not urging you for the sake of simply filling a theater. We're imploring you, because we feel this movie is at least as important as An Inconvenient Truth to anyone who cares at all about the natural world. And the crisis depicted is far more unequivocal than the debate surrounding global warming.

See this film. Save the sharks.

Saw something similar to this on discovery channel. Unfortuntely it was asian countries that contribute the most to this horrible crime. My heart sank and tears started running as i was watching. How do we stop this inhuman act? I'd love to help make a difference.
