Brian Skerry Save Water Summary

Protecting our oceans

The year is 2078. We have barley made it. The air is foggy, people all over the world are struggling more than ever now. The ocean if filled with oils, plastic bags, and bottles are washing up to the shore. Food and water is becoming harder to get. People are running out of supplies to live. People are unable to eat the fish in the sea because they now have diseases. Going to the market is impossible because everyone is fighting over anything they lay their eyes on. The world is struggling and crying for help. If they all did something they could make it better. Brian Skerry presents the glory and horrors of the ocean.

Skerry talks about the glory of the ocean across the world. He is an underwater photographer and has

As Skerry got more involved in his work he realized that there were two major environmental issuers that couldn’t be ignored. The first issue is that animals are being continued to be hunted. Hundreds of thousands of seals are being slaughtered every year. Due to the cause of global warming is the main cause of ice getting thinner. Animals aren’t able to stay on the ice for too long, causing them to fall through. The global fish crisis is also an issue. Skerry did a very different story about the underwater this time. He started to do war like photography. These images struck the audience harder because of what was really going on. He was showing marine readers what was really going on to marine life around the planet. Hunters are killing fish for food everywhere. People don’t realize how beautiful the fish they are eating once was. Skerry makes a point and says that the ocean isn’t a grocery store and we cant keep taking food from there. I agree with him, we can’t keep taking resources from the ocean and not expecting serious consequences. Fish are also being killed with out reason. Fishermen place nets to catch shrimp but the nets are catching everything in its path as well. These fish are being killed for no reason and the environment is also. I don’t believe they should be doing this, it is not the best thing to do. I think they’re would be a better way to catch the shrimp or just not to eat shrimp if it is ruing the environment

Skerry states facts about the ocean and through his photos he shows the oceans glory. Through his photographs Skerry shows the struggles the animals of the oceans go through and the horrors. By one step at a time we can change the way we take advantage of the ocean. People looked around and realized what was going. Everyone around the world put in one small act of effort and it went along way. Peoples lifestyles everywhere were changing; for the good. People started to clean up after themselves, and do the little things that counted. No one understood the situation until everyone as one made a change. This change went a long way. Fast forward to 2078 once again. Only this time it is different, we made a change and didn’t continue to trash our world. We are cleaning up and changed. The oceans are clean and fish aren’t getting killed for no reason. As a mater of fact the ocean is doing better then every. There are plenty of fish swimming around, whales aren’t harmed and fish aren’t being trapped in nets. In the past people cleaned up the oceans and helped. Everyone picked up trashed and helped to save the environment. They did it but they also didn’t think it would make a big difference. We are only taking a step ahead; there is no going back anymore. We put in all our efforts and we did our best, we have succeeded and we can only go up from here. Protect our
