The End of the Line Trailer

- Опубліковано 28 січ 2009
- The End of the Line is a powerful film about one of the world's most disturbing problems - over-fishing. Advances in fishing technology mean whole species of wild fish are under threat and the most important stocks we eat are predicted to be in a state of collapse by 2050. The film points the finger at those most to blame, including celebrity chefs, and shows what we can do about it. This is not just a film, it is also a campaign - for sustainable consumption of fish, for marine protected areas to allow the sea to recover, and for a new ethic of responsible fishing.

Eight years after watching this documentary, I continues to impact my choices when I purchase fish. Haunting.
So why u choose to still consume fish then...?
This is a MUST see documentary. We take absolutely no-worldwide group account on what is happening to our world-resources. The end seems inevitable, as we have proven again and again throughout our human history.
And I meet myself as a terrible coof takes places, as if by magic... must inject the world...
I am so glad that you have made this. Can't wait to see it.
Everyone should be made to watch this!!!
Great documentary I had already watch it three times!
Overfishing is indeed a big problem. Especially when they use tools for massive fishing, and then they dispose non-profit fish.
Thisone is now on my wishlist!
Hate being human sometimes for actions of others
i completely agree. but would you rather be a fish?
Very nice.. good trailer. Very emotive but also enough content to make people ask questions.
On a conservation front.. well even in my time I've seen the seas getting a lot worse.. a bit "out of sight out of mind" to many. Just got ot keep showing people what's going on.
Forward the link to people! Post it on Facebook as your status update... etc. etc.
Toller Film. Lohnt sich!
Thanks for the compliment shahrid.
I think the movie makes things perfectly clear. We are fishing with ever bigger ships and better technology. Despite this the fishing fleets are not catching as many fish as they did with small boats and crap technology 30 years ago.
The collapse of the Grand Banks off Newfoundland is a devastating example of something we risk repeating on a global scale if we continue as we are.
With no fish, industry will suffer, people will starve and populations will migrate. AND YET IT IS PREVENTABLE!!
11 years later and still nothing's changed
Such a better movie than Seaspiracy, they ACTUALLY interviewed fisheries scientists.
What's the name of the soundtrack?
Really shocking. Can't wait to see the film. When will it be in cinemas in the UK?
From what I've read and learned from videos this year indicates that the situation with overfishing isn't equally bad worldwide. From videeos about fishing in Alaska and I think the rest of the Pacific along western US states, commercial fishermen out there apparently use longline fishing and possibly also regular fishing rod & reel outfits. They apparently don't do deep trawling, which is what's caused a lot of the destruction of Atlantic cod stocks, f.e.
wow, amazing. they have a group you can become a fan of on face book too.
cant wait to see this
I believe in freedom for all, but I also respect all life, earth, sky, ocean, people and animals and I believe that we are stewards, not the dominators and grim reapers that so many have turned out to be. Life is sacred, all life, not just for humans, but for all.
Absolutely.
I live on the north coast and virtually all of the rubbish washed up on the beach here is plastic. Most of it has Spanish labels, so I assume it comes from the fishing boats. We get entire nets, floats, plastic barrels, discarded lobster pots and all manner of non-degradable plastic crap.
I wanted to watch this when it came out in UK but the nearest cimena was at the other end of the country from where i live.
this problem will real horrific when we don´t stop the overfishing. And so terrifying film. End all the harming of the earth! The Earth is not our property!
it is good enough to call it first in documentation for overfishing.
@Lillyvon Australia's fisheries are among the best managed in the world and should be recognised as such.
I have practiced fishing for all my life, i live near to the sea and have seen how fishes disappear year after year....i still fish nowadays and nobody has to tell me about see resources abuse, i live them in first person. People wont stop fishing as long fishing retrieves money. In my country farming and repobling with farmed species has proofs of success. When we build roads we replant the trees, why souldnt we repopulate the seas in the same way??? Theorically it works.Ialso agree wih periods
Wow looks like a geographically unbounded version of The Cove. Must check it out.
When is it coming on DVD ???
I live in Scotland. Our ocean fish stocks have been decimated by the spanish.
Spain has a huge demand for undersized fish and, as a result, the population is the lowest in recorded history.
It's not all about fishing though, the hydro-electric dams have been an unmitigated disaster for our salmon, as have fish farms which have released new diseases into the eco-system and reduced salmon numbers by 80% where I live.
i hope they show this in ireland
The trailer contained in the link says "The oceans belong to us". The oceans belong to every being.
@Trafa522 - completely agree - and very proud of that fact. I'm willing to pay more for my seafood if it means our coast line, seafood etc are managed well. NZ has a very good system as well.
I'm Australian, but I will say countries need to look at the example New Zealand are doing with fishing their waters and controlling what is being taken from them etc. I think they are leading the way for resourcefulness of the sea around them. I need to read more about it, but I did watch something on it and they are certainly doing an amazing job.
that sorta thing happens with any kinda farming if conducted improperly...
Since fish farming hasn't yet grown into the chimera that is agriculture and red meat/ poultry farming we can still set it up correctly so that this sort of issues are minimized.
Thr's still overfishing along the US Pacific coast. When I bought some fresh north Pacific wild salmon a couple of months ago at a fish store in Quebec, Canada, 1 employee said they only get fresh salmon for about 1 month in June, for that's the limit to the legal season for fishing for this salmon by Alaskan fishermen. I take that as a sign that there's definitely been overfishing; but not destructive of the aquatic habitat for the fish, as there's been with deep trawlers on Atlantic US coast
@Calvardeg I dont agree. I am a fisherman and I dont know of one other North Sea fisherman that would say there is a problem with stocks. What they would say is there is a problem with the science.The stocks and the science bear no resemblance to each other whatsoever.
we have to define a way to stop these killings
if any one has any idea plzz share
2012 is just Y2K for new-agers.
loved this movie. another reason I want to become a marine biologist.
Well, at least this is better than the end of the line sfm animation
what is the name of the song??? maybe mike olfield??? thx ;-)
I can't believe how this can be a new field of research as they tend to display it. What about the countless people studying oceanic biology? What about all of the enviromental organisations? The facts about overfishing should be very, very old news, just the media presentation might not be that vast yet.
I think at some point it will be too costly to hunt the last remaining fish, so I don't see an extinction of most of the species in the ocean (not talking about whales, etc.).
Touche.
even though I am vegetarian, I do not think that going vegan is the only solution. If people would just slow down on meat and fish consumption and get it back to a healthy level it would be fine, no?
i agree that we have to change though!
I didn't realize this was such a huge problem, they make it sound devastating, make a fucking documentary on the people dying in Darfur.
just sayin' it's already been effectively put to practice for both salt and sweet water fish, and frankly, I can't tell the difference in the taste of the meat anyway. I guess it's more common in some countries than in others.
Hopefully we won't end up farming fish under the same conditions we do land live stock.
Since fish farming hasn't grown outa control by now It's a good opportunity to set the conditions up properly from the beginning so that we can farm fish plenty and healthy.
The environment, human health and animal welfare all rely on your choices. If you are interested in the issues raised in The End of the Line or simply as a consumer please visit Pig Business the film channel.
@heedthevil Exactly. And if you're unaware of the WWF status on the type of fish being served at your restaurant, don't eat it (or presumably you can sms a number for the status, I'm able to in South Africa). If it's tuna and you can't be told where it was caught or how, then best not to eat it. Pole and line is much more sustainable a practice than purse-seine nets and certain regions are better off than others.
Wholemega could help as far as consuming a supplement that doesn't harm.
they need tougher laws against fishing. if fishermen get busted with overfishing they should get long prisonsentences.

Thr's the pollution problem of PCBs, mercury & other heavy metals, + possibly other contaminants. Some fish & seafoods are apparently safer when from the Atlantic, while others are reportedly safer from the Pacific. Wild north Pacific salmon is apparently a fish that can be safely eaten 5 times a week, possibly 7. According to WHFoods. com when it refers to mercury poisoning of fish, these salmon are very safe, I think it says sardines are better from Pacific, mackerel from Atlantic Canada, ....
why not make a breeding for feeding fishery area with loads of fish tanks for breeding safely and making sustained fish to eat and let the species thrive in them for as long as needed
at the end we eat Soylent Green
@DeepAddiction47 The main problem is the excessive demand and the lack of education. Most of the people i know don't even know about this problem. Infact, i wasn't aware of this until 3 years ago when it came up in one of my studies.
Based on the predictions of a scientific article that got published in Science with its glaring statistical flaws. There was actually a scientific article that showed how Science and Nature, although they publish some great science, also publish shit articles that are great for sales. This....was one of those articles.

are this film good???
yes but using natural resources from the ocean and breeding them may cause down sides but can make up for its probs with sufficient food to feed them and what they eat and feeding them in small amounts it is still possible and if needed make a area for the food and for the fish they grow and get in better numbers due to no predators so do die easier as disease effects them so that is conquerable with science and nature
Terrifying times, I do hope people insist on sustainably sourced seafood, it's the least you can do. WWF publishes a list on what's 'green', 'orange' and 'red'-listed, 'green' being the best option. I will not eat anything on the 'orange' or 'red' list and only consume fish at most twice in a month to cut down on my footprint. It all starts with you!
Aw yeah, i bet you and your friends have very interesting conversations.
and... its not gonna change anything....
"sad but true"
Ya I agree with henrip. Where's metallica! Lol
Its Sosial Change we need. The End of Short Term Profit... War and all the Bad stuff.
Look at The Zeitgeist Addendum, Zeitgeist Movement and or The Venus Project.
size and magnitude? mate we only have to kill few species and there you go... a chain reaction that you cant stop...
the most popular fish is the salmon and today we fish so called "wild fish" what we can grind and produce food for the salmon and it's back firing pretty damn good...
I could live without seafood...
whos that?
oh okay good
Weirdo
Not Metallica?
@tonka565 Who did what?! :O
@Doppelganger177 actually is not ignorance, just common sense if you compare fishing and aquaculture you will find that its more sustainable and well, im just propossing something to do because im really sorry if you think that you can make the world stop eating fish, son thats not gonna happen so it may be a really nice film but its totally useless, we need solutions NOT problems, we need to solve those problems and its just an start, what would you do to make it better??
The big problems are the Waste, the wanton gluttony of the industrial fishing machines out on the open seas. They are not paying any attention to the base reproductive biomass needed for a healthy sustainable resource.
We need international cooperation and economic buy in from those business interests. This emotional show is a step out of the comfort zone so that "They" have a chance to see a reason for change. Maybe before it is too late.
We all are part of the "They" are we not?
A little objective based documentary never hurt anything. Weird that I just went through an entire course on fisheries management and never once did we consider the doom of all fish, most likely because it's ridiculous. Obviously there are endangered/extinct species of fish, but applying a haunting orchestra soundtrack to environmentalists rant about their snowball effect arguments isn't what I would call reliable information. Not to say it shouldn't be heard, all sides should be heard.
Hope there are some facts in this movie rather than just pics of dead fish. Just the facts
@TheBabyDreDre
No way that fishes ARE food if you're not vegetarian.
The problem is that fishing is not agriculture: you just take and dnever sough.
But we do need a more substainable fishing.
@junglljr.Everytime anyone speaks about collapsing fish stocks the Grand Banks are used as the model.... "If we dont do this or that, this is what will happen"..blah blah blah... Perfectly good stocks of fish that have sustained families for generations are portreyed as accidents waiting to happen. We all get tarred with the same brush by people who think they know better and its us the fishermen who have to suffer the consequenses of their ill advised descisions.
I'm capitalist and I fully support this film. Overfishing is a problem we need to stop.
There's no reason to worry about fish, for fish is generated by hands. Jesus showed me and i have been living with an abundents of fish for a very long time.
@jurnalicious1 can I just say that you are correct. We are omnivores but for me, I refuse to eat another living soul because of the way they are killed. I can honestly say that if we were to hunt and kill our own meat, I would eat it. But it's because we kill it for no reason. We should only kill an animal if we are hungry.
''the sea belongs to us, so why don't we claim it back?''
that's stupid! the sea doesn't belongs to us, but too the earth!
Like it...don't like the evolution part though
Too many people in the world. Its not an infinite resource
to all the people here saying this is sensacionalism, that nothing will happend, and that what goes on in the ocean doesn't affect human lives... the day you see your grandchildren dying from thirst, hunger, then i wanna see if you all still be thinking the same way. Life on Earth depends on the oceans. try living without it to see what happens to you. Everything's conected. Humans only live 'cause of the nature around us.
i think its all related to overpopulation in fish farms and also the way fish are being treated compared to theire habitat
when i see fish farms tanks look pretty full and also fishes don't look like they have much space also i saw many documentary's about salmon fish farms i never see a stream why is that ? salmons are KNOWN to swim upstream to lay eggs are they not ?
@DeepAddiction47 Wow, i'm sorry for making you angry, you are obviously passionate about this which is a good thing and there is no need to take it out on a person who is on you're side. My comment was designed to shift the blame away from the "super trawlers" and point out the real problem that lies with the end user. Since you already know this and somewhat suggest that many people know that the excessive demand is the problem, why does that excessive demand still exist?
hahaha your hiking example is kinda controversial :P
If you designate hiking paths and make sure that hikers stick to them the situation can remain controllable if it's 100 or 1000 hikers visiting the location.
Besides, a handful of smelly, stinky, moron hikers left unsupervised is way worse than a 1000 regular hikers under properly regulated conditions.
we are farming fish.
@n52nimbus It isn't racist at all, it's completely true. They run one of the biggest Whaling fleets in the world.
emmm yum sushi yum yum yummy hehehe you have no idea
TOO MANY PEOPLE, PEOPLE.
BALONEY!
Well said, I have high hopes for the bird-flu pandemic. We need to regulate the size of our population and, as an extension of that, we have to question the very existence of our absurd system of monocultural agriculture.
Ideally though, we need about 90% of human beings to disappear.
shiningdeserteagle needs to go play some counter-strike... closest he'll get to one.
people need to see this film... shocking how ignorant people are.
mallwia has it right... it's greed by both the fishermen and the consumer.
Given that a single season agricultural crop destroys somewhere in the region of 2000 years worth of living fossil soil is veganism really the answer?
Overfishing what is this world coming too.... (*takes a bite off a tuna sandwich*)
good call as he is prolly fakeing the wiki fact and yes people are not bothered as it is not yet affecting them so he does not know how life works with facts but understandably and would you rather have fish with a game of hunt the biggest due to harvesting sustainably or not as me I would as at least it gives them fish a chance to get in better numbers
awe..i love our oceans and omg dont hurt any widlife period!how would you like it if someone ate you ,killed you,took you away from your home or something else@!!!!@ SAVE THE OCEANS!!!!!
Wow! Two independent documentaries about the world's ocean ecosystem: "The End of the Line" & "A Sea Change"
With 6.5 billion humans on this earth, we're going to completely rape the ocean of all life.
Check out the documentary "Sharkwater" already out on DVD now. It will blow your mind at the practices these fishermen use to make a few bucks.
Without serious depopulation of humans...having less kids I mean, has to be looked at asap ... The ocean inhabitants are our relatives, remember...all life has come from the oceans. My art practice focuses on the suffering of cetaceans and other marine life due to plastic polution, another reason to not eat fish...check out Georgina Maxwell artist
Why not catch it yourself?
Then you know where it came from and you are participating in the true human experience of hunting and gathering.
If we really want to save aquatic animals what should be the obvious solution is to not eat them. All of the nutrients we need in order to thrive can be obtained more healthfully, humanely, and environmentally responsibly from plant sources, including vegan seafood: www.FishFeel.org/seafood What we need is for people to genuinely respect our fellow sentient species, and we won't accomplish that as long as they are needlessly being consumed.
