Millions of us are carelessly and thoughtlessly producing or dumping millions of tons of plastic material and other trash around, especially in rivers, indifferent to the damage and hurt that we cause to the water, rivers and ultimately to the oceans. We are too greedily busy consuming and consuming to know that this Planet does not just belong to us. Big companies are cracking up production of plastics with some false label claiming the plastic they produce is degradable. The goal to make more money at the cost of the decimating ocean creatures.

We are too ignorant about the impact the loss of marine live can cause to the existence of man.

Sir David Attenborough has been raising the alarm about this danger. His calls have been ignored and the world, especially the oceans and getting dirtier.

I hope this time his despair will be heard and action will be taken.

The world should listen to the legend and do something before it is too late.

The good thing about documentaries produced by BBC Natural History Unit is that no matter how many times you have watched a scene before, you still enjoy it when it is produced by the said unit. BBC documentaries are supplemented by the soft and pleasant voiceover of the legendary naturalist, Sir. David Attenborough. He is innately wired to enchant the viewers filmed by professional cameramen.

The visuals in this documentary (The Americas) are stunning, the scenes shown are awe-inspiring and the job done by the filming crew is admirable. BUT, there is nothing we have not seen before in this documentary series. It is just like a copying of scenes from other documentary series and splicing them together to produce this documentary series.

And, this series does not have the attraction, the pull that documentaries produced by BBC have.
