  • This island has a dirty secret... Plastic pollution on one of the most untouched places on earth. How did all this trash get here? It was brought here by the currents in the ocean. Yes, that's how we've treated our mother earth, and this video documents the problem. Please watch and share to promote banning single use plastic and recycling.

      There are actually some centuries old Japanese swords that thirst for blood and cry out when they are removed from their

Not to mention that the videography of these opening scenes of the boat and the very unusual and remote island of Henderson. Did it stop there? No. Kimmie is now giving us a wonderful rundown of the geographic and volcanic history lesson in a very straightforward and interesting manner. Wow. Now I'm going to watch the rest.

      I was thinking exactly the same thing. The intro shots can rival any Hollywood production. No other sailing channel I watch have this kind of quality if you match the beauty of what is shown with the technical aspect. They are excellent story tellers and their productions are both educational and informative. If it where not for these two, I would not have been able to lay eyes on Henderson Island. Sure there is an article on the Guardian about the plight of Henderson Island but I only found it AFTER watching this video. Excellent job!

    As you say, it is one of the most remote islands in the world and you guys are on it!. Henderson also has a raft of very exotic and very rare plant and animal life due to its position in the tropics becouse of the decent annual rainfall. It's true too that it has never been a popular island for civilisation but that is surely part of the draw. Despite the mounting rubbish crisis that the UK government fails to acknowledge, it is still a beautiful paradise and you folks are lucky to be there. Subscribed.

    Again a great great video. love how you guys have evolved and who you're becoming. Love how enthousiast you are about your journey and how you are concerned about our planets "health".
    I just wanted to point out to one major cause of all plastics in the oceans: 46% of all plastic derbis found in the oceans is derived from the fishing industry (nets, rodes, baskets, floaters etc etc)!!!!
    This means that one thing we (as modern world citizens) can do is to STOP EATING FISH AND ANY SEA PRODUCTS (unless cought by ourself going in the water)!!! This would indeed have a major impact on those floating plastic continents.
    Have a great time and keep those videos coming.

    James, I've been following you since day one and certainly the hands down best decision you've made along the way is to bring Kim into your and our world. I just want to give you both a huge shout out for this video. While I certainly believe in eco-responsiblity, sadly I have never been what one might consider an eco-warrior. This video did an incredible job of driving home the impact that single use plastic is having on our environment. Congratulations to you both on this video and especially to Kim for her outstanding narration. Best to you both.
