[Music] Foreign. Why should we give land to the Indians when it clearly says from the paper it belongs to the farmers? We surely you must realize that this is their home. These indigenous tribes have been living on this land for hundreds of years. Listen, this world is not fair.

Some people win, some people lose. The whole world thinks they can tell Brazil what to do with her land. Sorry, no. We do what we please. Um [Music] Foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] We live on an incredibly beautiful planet, a home that we will hopefully pass on to

generations to come. But as years go by, it's becoming increasingly hard to imagine what kind of a world we're leaving behind us. We've spent the last four years traveling around the world filming the stark reality that people now face from

the threat of ecological collapse. It's now become very clear to us that there's one thing driving the destruction of our ecosystems faster than anything else. Let us show you how this very same thing might just also be our salvation. [Music] Oh, climate and environmental scientists

warn that we are fast approaching the point of no return. If we don't make a substantial course reversal, we see really serious catastrophic effects in the next few years. Certainly in the next decade or two, the world will be completely different from the way it is now.

[Music] Foreign. We began to work together to move this issue onto the global center stage. There was a lot of discussion about the contribution from buildings and from industrial factories, but I became aware during that same period of time that there was another factor that was going

undiscussed and that is the role of animal agriculture which I could see was playing some significant role around the planet but this was the elephant in the room no one wanted to talk about whatever environmental issue you want to look at from species loss to water

pollution to water use to climate change animal agriculture is one of the top causes the critical widespread negative impact of animal agriculture on our planet is undeniable severe Global crises from climate change and environmental damage to species extinction hunger poverty disease and antibiotic resistance all of these have

direct connections to animal agriculture and the massive inefficiency of our current food production systems the foreign choice has on on global warming it's very significant eating meat is huge for global climate and that's something where personal choice is the determining factor so that's the only case I can

think of where individual human choice would have a big effect would be food we're now over the line and the idea that we're going to double meat production between now and 2050 this is just unsustainable this is going to have to give our diet is taking us to

an abyss a significant reason why livestock production has been having such a huge impact on greenhouse gas emissions is because of the large surfaces of forests that have been destroyed in order to make room for pastures and for the growth of soybean and maize for

feedstock production thank you foreign foreign foreign [Music] almost all the Earth's surface has now bears the mark of some kind of human impact and most of that is livestock production agriculture has transformed the planet like nothing else to produce milk we farm an area about the size of

Brazil to produce beef, we farm an area about the size of Canada, the United States, the whole of Central America, Venezuela, Colombia, and Ecuador combined. To produce eggs, we farm an area the size of Sweden. To produce aquaculture feed, an area about the size of the UK. A

plant-based diet would reduce the amount of land required to produce our food by 3.1 billion hectares. That's an area the size of the entire African continent. [Music] [Music] [Music] Thank you. [Music] Things we have in the world is our

rainforest, but the rainforests are literally being chewed away by farmers who know they can make money by cutting another acre and then another acre and then another acre for need. Thank you. [Music] [Music] [Music] Thank you. [Music]

heels. [Music] Is [Music] So there was actually a report that came out in 2018, and they found that the world's top five livestock corporations now release more annual greenhouse gas emissions than ExxonMobil, Shell, and BP. It is crazy when you think about it

because the EU is spending 24 billion pounds of taxpayers money on livestock farming each year, and this is at a time when we are facing an ecological collapse and we drastically need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. So it's no surprise that people are asking a lot

of questions now about the fact that there seems to be some serious conflicts of interest going on here. There's some very heavy lobbying going on of government, and I think that happens throughout the world and it's just a historic thing that needs to be

think rebalanced as I've mentioned to you over the phone um I've worked with a number of large livestock companies around the world so the way it works is that I representative from Bezos he usually [pays] up to half a million euros

we then target the relevant politicians from different governments around the world and motions are made to pass legislation in favor of the company's business strategies for environmental policy we can be very persuasive in order to abolish or heavily relax environmental regulations in government so our clients have more freedom in

their work I mean the other day we managed to kill proposed legislation that would have had a huge impact on the industry based on a report from the FAO you know the industry is just concerned with growth but the environmental data that's coming out now it's it's really making that

difficult for them today democracy does not always function as well as it should because of the huge influence that agribusiness corporations and livestock producers in particular exercise on decision making a former director of the United Nations food and agriculture organization Dr Samuel

Johnson warned as far back as 2010 but interventions by agribusiness lobbyists were blocking reforms that would offer better standards for human health and preserving the environment big animal agribusiness corporations and food producers influence over political decisions about the regulation of their

industry has long been a concern for campaigners who see the narrow interests of the industry taking widespread control if we have any doubt about how powerful this influence is we can recall that for example when the advisory committee on dietary guidelines in the U.S made

recommendations to the US government as to how dietary guidelines should be shaped, they were blocked by this very powerful lobby of agribusiness interests. Foreign, there are close ties between the research organizations and governments, and government policy and industry. It's very pervasive because livestock

industries depend on government policies that support them. We have few reports that were prepared within the FAO by specialists of agriculture and livestock production, not by specialists of the environmental issues associated with agricultural production. I believe that the more serious concern of course is

that the International Meat Association was involved in preparing the report, which does raise the question of the independence with which the study was prepared. Government policy in that regard is not for the benefit of the land, it's for the benefit of the industry. Foreign, foreign.

[Music] Foreign [Music] When I was a child, the idea of a dead zone in the ocean, it was it was not even in our vocabulary, but in the 20th century, as agriculture began to greatly expand, the areas around the coast began to show

signs of wear and tear. The first most notorious spotlight area I think was off the Gulf of Mexico, and it has simply grown over the years, an annual phenomenon. It is coincident with the application of massive amounts of fertilizers. Foreign, there are hundreds of dead zones that

have developed all around the coastlines of the world, and okay, people say that's that's too bad for the fish. So sorry fish, but we need to understand that what we do to the ocean, we're doing to ourselves. [Music] I want others to see and and to see for

themselves this is all we've got this little blue miracle [Music] thank you is [Music] foreign foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign opportunities for European fishermen with more than 5 billion euros and benefiting more than 50 000 fishermen

the catches agreed today will continue to make the European fishing industry highly profitable also in 2019. [Music] foreign [Music] foreign foreign [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] foreign foreign [Music] foreign foreign ERS starting with Hobby and it's grown

until it's a billion Euro industry today and seafood is the second largest export industry in Norway and fish farming accounts for two-thirds of the export value of seafood so recently we found out that you also have shares in one of the largest fish farm companies in Norway do you not feel that

that's a conflict of interest of course there could be a con in conflict of interest but this is a fact that's been known since before I got this position and I've been open about it I do not I'm not involved in the business from day to day

or at any so it's and if this we have and I have so I have to do you have to start over again so all the decisions that I made will either be for the whole industry not specially for this fish farm where it's only an advice to the politicians

and the politicians setting the limits and the actual regulations so if there's an actual case who handling regarding this company then I will step aside when on a few children I was working here over the years as a diver we used to go into Fish Farms cleaning the the

disease fish from the nets and fix the nets etc after storms and on occasion we'd seen some of the boats coming in to clean the lice off them there's quite a lot of dead fish you know disease they'll have died there's a lot of pink

mush you know no no no no no Healthy Look having seen what I've seen and worked on the various sites around about where I've been in Scotland I wouldn't eat farmed salmon no I'm pretty pretty rank [Music] salmon is marketed as healthy it's also

marketed in in a very devious way deceptive way that they think it's a wild product so it's a fake product it's a fatty product it's contaminated it's marketed as healthy but it but it's not so salmon if you see salmon alarm bells

you'd start ringing groom when you dive down to the bottom of the cages because you know we always see the bottom full of dead fish and it's basically because many of these fish are so diseased so parasite ridden and laden with chemicals that they

become sick and they live out their sad short lives basically looking like zombies [Music] you know you don't see this when you go to the restaurant or the supermarket but this is basically what a lot of the fish actually look like before it ends up on

our plates so tonight Don wanted to show us how much of the farm fish actually dies because of the very unnatural and unsanitary ways that they are kept and they have rows or very large metal containers that they are constantly filling up with the dead fish and I have

to say that the smell as we get closer is actually pretty disgusting. So this is the sordid side of salmon farming in Scotland. This is the there's dirty secrets the industry don't want you to see. This is disease-ridden farm salmon. It's 15 to 20% fat, that's where

the contaminants, the cancer-causing contaminants, PCBs, dioxins and the artificial colorings are. So this is something to be avoided at all costs. This is the salmon farm just here. We got free information data from the Scottish Environment Protection Agency showing the use of over 50 tons of

formaldehyde, not just at this site but other sites across Scotland. Is formaldehyde may cause cancer, suspected of causing genetic defects, toxic if swallowed, may cause respiratory irritation, causes damage to organs. Do not breathe [Music] [Music] One of the fish farm workers told us

that the workers come down to the farm early in the morning spraying the chemicals into the fish cages. So they're obviously spraying something down there in the water. The guy who gave us the tip-off said that toxic chemicals are widely used across Scotland, including formaldehyde

and also hydrogen peroxide [Music] and these are supposed to treat the diseases and lice problems which are both rampant across the fish farms. You know, these are not chemicals that you want in your body. Whatever he's spraying must be pretty powerful if he needs to wear a full

protective chemical suit and a face mask [Music]. You know, our oceans have become humanity's sewers. Everything eventually flows into the sea. So if you had a, you know, time machine that could go back before the Industrial Revolution, might be a different story, but now the highest

levels of many of these persistent organic pollutants we're talking about, you know, DDT and PCBs and dioxins, the highest levels in our food supply are found in the aquatic food chain. Fish are not the safest choice anymore. So Tony, it's great to see you. Good to see you as well.

Well, thanks for coming. Not to tell, thank you. Pleasure being here. So I wanted to ask you if you could share with us what is, what exactly it was you began to feel when you realized something was going wrong. I was exhausted more than usual, and then I was losing short-term memory.

and that scared the hell out of me. And then I tore my rotator cuffs in a really intense snowboarding accident and the doctor said, 'You want to do your metal stuff?' I said, 'I got my mom that 25 years ago.' He goes, 'There's so many metals in

Bayern, maybe we should do it.' So I did. I get a phone call a week later and I said to my system, 'Just had him send the report.' He said, 'No, it's an emergency, I have to speak to you.' I was like, 'No one wants to hear that.' And

so I called him up and he said, 'Tony, I showed your blood tests. You have extreme mercury poisoning. On a zero to five scale, which is what you measure, five being toxic, you're 12.3.' The doctor said, 'How long has this man been in the

hospital?' And I just got off stage, so I, I said, 'I can't understand this.' So I went out and they thought, you know, maybe someone's trying to poison me because the number was so high and I was very disciplined. I was a vegan for 12 years.

and then I just went salad fish salad fish and they bought the Medical Group out here and they looked at it and I found this man named Dr. Shade who's the only guy has an ideation process where you can see where the mercury came from and it was fish. It's been three years

and I had some severe moments. It burned a hole in my esophagus and I literally collapsed. I lost a third of my blood supply. I could have died. I lost half my hemoglobin. People begin to lose their hair, their memory, they lose their memories as you were doing as you would

notice that they can also have headaches, they can complain of fatigue, they can also have depression. What we're seeing now is with the toxic environmental exposure and especially with the mercury, methane mercury and fish, is that everyone has got to be careful because their levels are going up. You don't

tell me because your specialty is in this, how do you get the fish oils that we all need for the brain and for the body, uh if we can't have fish what do you suggest we used to get them from? Fish oils, yes, and but we can actually

get them from vegetables. Flax is the richest source of Omega-3 that we everybody thinks should come from fish oil. If you get enough of that, a starting material, your body will make what the fish oils make and it'll be clean. Many people take fish oils or have fish for

the long chain omega-3 fatty acids and you have to ask yourself the question, well where do the fish get them from? And it turns out they get them from the algae in the ocean. They get them from plant food. So if you want the purest

form of the long chain ready-made omega-3 fatty acids the best way of doing that is simply to take an algae supplement because then you've got the purest form of it and you don't have the extra risks of having the toxins and the

heavy metals and the saturated fat and the cholesterol that you would get from eating fish. It's foreign. Nobody would go to the nearest body of water and put in like a cup and drink the water. Um, you're basically getting the concentrated toxins if we're eating fish.

[Music] It's foreign. [Music] [Music] Foreign. [Music] Foreign. [Music] [Music] Because all those nets, all those lines, all that stuff, it's it's just become a plasticized ocean. But we have a chance. We have a chance right now to change our

eating habits. There's a nest. There's over 5 trillion in absolutely everywhere. Everywhere we look we find microplastics, whether it's at the polar regions, in remote islands. Also, if we're looking on the surface or the sea bed and everywhere in between, we

find microplastics. We've also found microplastics in just about every animal group that we've looked in. We've been cycling for microplastics for quite a while now and we found that there's 27 times more bits of plastic than there

are fish larvae. Foreign. [Music] [Music] Thank you again. Foreign. [Music] This is [Music] Our scientists tell us we're now in the sixth extinction event of life on this Earth. It doesn't even make the headlines. No one even knows about it.

[Music] [Music] foreign [Music] Are you Romero? Clearing up because the light becomes [Music] foreign [Music] foreign We've had five mass extinction events on this planet in 450 million years. Let me be clear on this: the last time we had an

extinction event of this magnitude was 65 million years ago. It's incredibly sad to realize just how many species, um, both in the oceans and on land that we're losing at the moment. Um, and it's up to all of us to make sure

that this doesn't happen in the future. Today, over 26,000 species are currently threatened with extinction, and the most important driver of that is our use of land for agriculture. Over time, livestock have been a major, major driver of biodiversity loss. Some have predicted that

by 2045, the species loss would be so great that we won't recover. The Earth will suffer ecological collapse. And the biggest thing you and I can do is change our diet. Floridad foreign audition foreign stage [Music] foreign [Music]

foreign policy makers have been very, very reluctant to address the livestock issue. It's entirely out of keeping with the urgency of the crisis that we're facing. All right, onto Broadway for Rockstar films, and this is a question for Commissioner Hogan: Scientists at Oxford University have

been very clear that livestock farming has a far greater impact than plant-based farming. With this in mind, would it not be common sense to reduce the billions in subsidy payments to livestock farming in Europe and offer them to plant-based farming instead as an incentive to a much more

sustainable food system, we have made our proposals based on protecting the farmers because they are unlike you and I; they're out in all sorts of weathers and they face all sorts of market risks, and you and I may not know anything about that because this is

their lives; this is their producing high-quality food for us all, so that we can have this particular good quality product available to us at all times. Sometimes in the local conditions like organic, more times as conventional farming, so we provide financial support at the moment for that, and it's a public

good that's not always recognized, but the movement of our policy is in the direction of our farmers being centrally involved in providing more public goods, and if you want to do anything in life, you have to pay people sometimes. I understand that there's a moral

obligation, and there's people a principle, but most of the time, 99% of the time, they have to get paid. So as professionals that we're expecting to provide good quality food and do more on public goods, we pay our farmers. This is

the decision that we make at a political level. When I start, I met methane and nitrous oxide. Now most people when they think of climate change, they think of CO2, carbon dioxide, which is a very potent global warming gas, but methane is 25 times more

potent per molecule when it's released than CO2, and nitrous oxide is 298 times more potent per molecule than CO2. These are very powerful global warming gases. So today we have a very special camera called a hyperspectral imaging camera, and it basically enables us to be able to

see gases that would be otherwise invisible to the naked eye and today we're looking at methane gas. Methane is a gas that is being produced by cows when they belch. [Music] We know that if we would shift from

animal needs to other meats, then we probably would reduce our footprint just from that particular product by about a factor of 10, which is quite a bit. Uh, but if you compare that with how much you would reduce your footprint if you went to plant-based products, that is

about a factor of 100, and that's the reason why shifting to more towards more plant-based diets has such a big impact because we're really talking about different scales here. Big differences between organic and conventional across multiple indicators. What we did find is that no matter how

you produce animal products, even the lowest impact forms of production still create higher emissions and use more land than typical vegetable proteins. So that's saying something really important. That's saying that even if you go into the shops and try and purchase sustainable meat or dairy, it's always

going to be better to purchase vegetable proteins instead. [Music] Filthy, unhygienic conditions, basically live atop their feces. It's just like a breeding ground for animal-to-human diseases that arise because the way we're now treating animals, whether it's these live

animal markets in East Asia, um, whether it's the bushmeat trade, the concern is that with enough spins at genetic roulette on these swine factory farms, these chicken factory farms, we're gonna, you know, end up with one of these viruses that's not only deadly to

chickens so I can jump and transmit human to human and cause the next human pandemic the risk of large-scale factory farmings increases the risk that we or the likelihood that we might have a pandemic particularly of influenza in the future this pandemic has been very severe but

this is not necessarily the big one is people know now what a global pandemic feels like and we've seen the effects they will be feeling the effects for many years to come and this is a chance I think an opportunity to point out that this particular route of infection is is

a very concerning one foreign [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] so having been a butcher for six years one thing I know is that if people knew what happened in the production of their food they wouldn't eat meat [Music] so one of the things that we would hit

every day was pus nodules tumors cysts it was something that we would hit on a daily basis having worked in a supermarket chain I was I saw this firsthand every single day so here's one that's running along the shoulder blade oh yeah that is what I remember in The

Butchery it comes out like a thick toothpaste I remember that every single day that's interesting to hear you had that experience all the way over there because in the UK exactly the same yeah we would see that on a daily basis but those people who say it's uh it's not my

butcher does this you know they need to open their eyes but it's a fair butcher's being honest with them we know yeah we both know and and only on his Butch is going to admit it they're not going to want to tell the public because

it's going to affect their business, but it is a fact, and me working in multiple butcheries, I saw these common trends across the board. So I know that it wasn't just isolated to the one that I was working in, it was across the board.

For me, people need to reconnect with what they're eating and the whole process that we were we're talking about here of how that food gets to them. Um, it's hidden from them and it's hidden for a reason because if they saw it, it would most definitely make them want to

think harder about what they're eating. As our oceans and atmospheres begin to warm, the water cycles of the planet are beginning to change. Climate change changes the water cycles of the planet. The heat that's being generated is forcing the precipitation into the clouds, so we're getting more

concentrated precipitation in our clouds and more dramatic extreme and unpredictable water events all over the world. Foreign. Is Canada is foreign. [Music] [Music] Foreign. [Music] I think we're seeing, you know, much more uh many more swings in climate than

we've seen in the past, but we want to use all the land that we have to grow food, but we haven't been able to just because of the the shortages of water. It'll have an impact on food supply and prices and availability. And so estimates

now are between 500 000 to over a million acres of farmland that'll come out of production in California. [Music] Foreign. I made I saw Europe says in terms of water, the truth is that the drought in Spain has become a complete

Catastrophe! Our harvests are decreasing in massive quantities. Last year in the area we are now, there was almost no harvest. People don't realize the food system is collapsing. The system is foreign... foreign... foreign. [Music] [Music] Oh. [Music]

Yeah. Foreign. [Music] All the sticks here is... thank you. A lot of people talk about how much fresh water we use for hydro fracking. 700 billion gallons globally is wasted on fracking, so 700 billion gallons sounds like a lot, but animal agriculture, the production of animals that we use

for meat around the globe, uses 70 trillion gallons of fresh water a year. Hundreds of thousands of times as much as fracking. And and we give them the cows and the chickens the good stuff, right? They don't get the Flint, Michigan

lead-tainted condoms floating in their water. They get the top-shelf stuff because we don't want to screw up our sausage links. And I know what some of you are thinking right now. You're thinking, "Oh, here's the part. I'm a vegetarian and pigs are people too, man."
