@@redwhite_040 Hardly any clothing companies are “sustainable“ these days. I do find value in these films though and helping bring awareness, especially to people who have minimal to no awareness around subjects such as this. Thanks for sharing your comment as it is quite relevant and important as well.
The messages mean well, but most of these patagonia videos are causing problems for the biologists and ecologists who actually restore land and water. The problem is these people do not understand the science and they promote ideas that are emotionally appealing, but create dangerous barriers for habitat restoration. Parts are good, but much of it is not. For instance instead of planting sea grass / eel grass, they should have concentrated on improving sediment conditions. The native grasses would then easily colonize. These videos should promote the scientists with answers along with people who are concerned. They rarely do this.
Incredible, this video shed light on an important issue that resonates with me personally. Being born and raised in Alaska, I understand how crucial it is to raise awareness on our delicate ecosystems. The destruction of habitats and the disruption of natural processes on both flora and fauna is a very threating on the balance and overall health of our planet. I wanted to commend Patagonia on taking the initiative to spread awareness and release this video. Education and awareness are a powerful tool in initiating change and fostering a sense of responsibility towards our planet. Thank you for promoting awareness on such a critical issue!
Let's be honest, if we reduce demand, we reduce fishing. Like it or not, people need to eat less seafood and to also reevaluate their diets in general. Surely there is no other choice.
There is always a choice. As shown in this video, the problems are pollution, heavy damage fishing methods and lack of recovery effort of the health of the ocean floor. If government can stop the bottom trawling way of fishing and support the effort to recover the healthy environment of the ocean floor, hopefully the fishes quantity and quality can rise again.
disagree - worldwide demand for protein is HUGE. Putting a premium price --- reflective on value of the protein is the way forward. And yes, that will limit access.
@Ben M I wouldn't rely on the government to save my life. When it comes to environmental policies, they never go far enough. Education is what is needed, and more exposure and awareness of the situation. Then, the people can enforce the change that is needed.
Unfortunately people seem to think reducing consumption means complete avoidance somehow. There should be no such thing as factory farms or fish farms. They destruction both cause is incredible. Our grandparents ate a fraction of the meat we do. Wild caught, and free range grass fed, should be the minimum requirement. We decimate our fish populations by fishing animals lower on the food chain to feed larger animals like Tuna because of what we've decided to eat. Sardines for example are seen as unsustainable, the only reason they are unsustainable is because we farm them to feed other fish, just like we do with soy crops and cows. We'd be better off eating the sardines and soy, and we'd be healthier for it. 80% of our agricultural land is used for meat yet is only 30% of our calories. And whilst it is a consumer choice, we also have to deal with the fact that the moment and industry begins to struggle, they are propped up by government ultimately allowing them to continue doing what they do and offer the cheaper products to market so consumer choose them.
I grew up not far from where this film was shot. Every weekend I'd go to the local pier to fish and we'd reel in all sorts. 20+ years on there's not a fisherman in sight nor a fish to bite. Keep up the great work, Patagonia. Hopefully one day I can fish my local pier again 🙏
Incredible and moving. Inspirational to see hear these fishermen pushing for change. The disconnect between government and the people is extremely frustrating and something that needs to change in order to accomplish fundamental change.
Agree excellent work. We are so destructive as humans, this is so much more a worth while thing, saving the Oceans and the fish, than the totally unrealistic 'stop oil' protests, the numbers of seals around the UK coast, prior to the cull ban, I'm told, were in the region of 30,000 now that is more like 650,000 x 2-3 kilos of fish a day x 365 it's a no brainer where alot of our fish are going! All our lovey dovey tv programs don't ever get down to the real cruelty of nature + promoting the reintroduction of extinct animals, why cant we save the currently existing animals via protection, which includes management of the predator species, which is not only seals but us as well......
Great video. I think it should be made more clear that seafood produced and caught in the UK has been sustainably caught. A blue dolphin logo or whatever doesn’t cut it in my opinion and is easily missed. For instance, you don’t read ‘industrially dredged scallops’, or ‘fish farmed salmon’ on any menu here in Scotland, which by in large is the truth. As the video mentioned, if the public/customer could only see and understand what’s going on under the waves. That’s one of the key solutions to this issue - education and awareness.
80% of food should be sourced within a radius of 15 (car) minutes from the consumer. 20% of food of high quality could come from outside this radius provided it is sustainably produced and ads value to the community that produces this. Famers should be our health guardians and stewards of our local food biospheres.
Wow, what a film , so true. Haven dived in Loch Fyne I`ve seen the impacts of bottom trawling. Totally agree , change must happen now and not tomorrow. Fantastic to see fishermen changing their harvest methods. Truly inspirational and hope others follow.
It's likely that the politicians and civil servants DO agree with you. But instead, they are pandering to industrial fishing industry bad actors who are paying them to say something else and continue passing poor fisheries policy that benefit the industry in the near term. And just like the extractive industries everywhere, the general public are left to suffer the damages and pay for the repair.
Dredging sediments oxidizes and ties up limiting nutrients. Instead of planting the grass in poor / dredged habitat, address the habitat itself. The grass will then come in on its own. In this case get actual limnologists and soil scientists involved in order to make your efforts an order of magnitude more beneficial. This is the problem with patagonia, they emphasize environmentalists who lack understanding while they should be promoting the actual scientists.
Sadece benim ülkemde olur böyle şeyler sanırdım...Gerçekten enteresan...3 tarafı denizlerle çevrili kendine ait bir iç denize sahip olan hatta bir kentinin ( İstanbul) tam ortasından yılda iki kez balık göçünün yaşandığı ülkemin durumu da İskoçya ile çok benzer...80'li yıllara kadar çeşitliliğin muazzam olduğu Marmara Denizi bugün bitmiş vaziyette...Marmara Denizi gibi bir iç denizin dünya üzerinde bir benzeri daha yok...Etrafı sanayileşmiş ve kalabalık nüfusa sahip büyük kentlerle çevrilmiş arıtma tesisleri yok ya da yok gibi...Yasak olmasına rağmen trol yapılıyor..Aşırı ve yasak avcılık, devasa balıkçılık teknelerine sahip güçlü ve acımasız ,sonu düşünmeyen balıkçılar ve onların elindeki palyaço siyasiler, sahip olduğu değerin farkında olmayan bilinçsiz bir halk ve sonuç; Deniz zengini ama balık yiyemeyen bir halk...Çünkü balık yok ve olan da pahalı... İskoçya belki eski günlerine dönebilir ama Türkiye asla...
Film is super important and feels genuin! I'm a bit offended though, that you put Norway over mostly Swedish land in the map... Interesting why I react so much😵💫😅 but I did!.... haha
Brilliant film and should be compulsory showing at secondary schools but yet again another environmental topic exposed without discussing the major issue. Over population of the planet.
@@gandicae Ha Yea!! It was obvious back then and even centuries earlier - Way back ? (bce) Horace: "We are just statistics born to consume resources" ... when those resources are depleted we become the last option - feed on/off ourselves!!
But underline on all the beatiful and uplifting pictures and words is consumerism and capitalism. Can you consume for a better planet? I dont care how deeply ecological and green washed Patagonia is. It’s still a huge part of the core problem.
Patagonia does not call itself a sustainable business, they never have. They don't believe such a thing exists. That being said, they are a company that produces high-quality gear and clothing, offers free repairs, buys its clothing back to keep it out of landfills, donates millions to grassroots enviro groups, discourages overconsumption and reuse, is actively working to fix problematic areas of food production, protecting wild places, the list goes on. Patagonia is a drop in the bucket in terms of resource consumption and footprint but has an outsized influence on how other companies can and should be doing business. And despite all of this, they fully acknowledge the inherent contradictions in their business and are working to reduce or eliminate them. People are never going to stop consuming, unfortunately. But buy less, buy better, buy used, borrow, or repair? That's a way forward.
These Patagonia films are so important.
They should be shown everywhere to everyone.
Thank you to all who have worked to produce these incredible productions & for sharing them with all of us, the custodians of this beautiful planet we call home.
Patagonia is so sustainable. They even make their clothes in the same factory as Zara and Primark.

Ae, nothing can be changed until it is faced. Nothing to disagree with here. THANK YOU each of you - DOING something.

I'm not sure how you think that is remotely possible. 15 minutes from central London gets you where?

Reproduction of human and not teaching them the facts of life this is destroying us😢
What is Patagonia doing to help save the reef at Teahupoo from destruction by the Paris 2024 Olympics? Sadly, nothing from what many of us can see…
Should have done it about actual custodians of elementary schools. Hit me up. I guess it’s not good enough for Patagonia
I was hoping to see some well worn Patagonia clothes! I was very disappointed.

We won't be able to fix it until we acknowledge we have a problem. That more or less sums it up!
