Please share and help me make this student film a reality!

I grew up surrounded by incredible stories of thriving oceans and breathtaking seascapes so full of life they sounded like a fairy tale. Our oceans have changed an unprecedented amount in the last 25 years, we have witnessed the decline of coral reefs globally with mass bleaching events and coral acidification headlining newspapers. We have watched as groundbreaking numbers of species have been shifted onto the IUCN red list and observed fish stocks crash locally and on a global scale. In just 25 years, in just my lifetime the amount our oceans have changed is staggering and the stories I grew up with of incredible thriving oceans have disappeared into history books. Our impact on our planet exists, it can be seen now and it can be seen globally. When you grow up in a time when terms like global warming, deforestation, and extinction are common vocabulary its hard to fully understand the full extent of the level of impact we have had on the natural world, to understand what we have lost we must first know what we had. This film takes its audience on a journey back in time showing how much our oceans have changed from the perspective of multiple generations, illustrating the importance of key habitats such as mangroves and coral and showing how much we have lost in just one generational shift. However, this will not be a film about the loss, it's a film about hope. I will be highlighting the power of marine protected areas showing there are still places that exist that are thriving and that while we still have these pockets of resistance there is time for us to make an impact and save our oceans. I will show the power of human will and one group's dedication to ocean conservation, planting mangroves, restoring reefs, returning fish biomass to their coastline, and ultimately showing us it is never too late to make a change, it is not too late to save our oceans.
