Hawai‘i – Message in the Waves
http://messageinthewaves.com/
 A
film from the BBC Natural History Unit looking at some of the
environmental challenges facing the people and wildlife of the
Hawaiian Islands. Although the documentary is from a Hawaiian
perspective it is really a global film. Because of their size,
location and social history, the Hawaiian Islands represent a
microcosm of the planet and are in a unique position to tell
all of us where we are going wrong and what we can do to help
put things right.

Japanese Dolphin Hunt Video
http://oceana.org/
 This may just be the most
disturbing three minutes of footage you've ever seen. Half a world
away, dolphins and whales are being chased, trapped and killed
by the thousands. At the end of the day, the only trace of the
slaughter is an ocean stained red and videos like this one.
During Japan's annual dolphin hunting season more than 20,000
dolphins and porpoises will be killed as a form of "pest
control." Officials claim that the dolphins eat too many fish,
but those that are slaughtered are sold off to supermarkets and
grocery stores.
