- BBC - Making Scotland's Landscape 3 of 5 The Sea: Professor Stewart reveals how hearts and not heads have ruled the least understood landscape of them all - the sea. The public's emotions have played a key role in the fate of Scotland's maritime creatures and the upshot has been a form of lottery. While some species like seals and sea birds have been protected, others - like cod - have been fished nearly out of existence.

You have the gift of telling the unblemished truth about the history of Scotland without assigning blame and developing a sense of realistic expectations for the future in an audience.
Amazing writing and photography. This is information-rich. Well-worth watching and learning from.
Thankyou for uploading this. This story is the same over most of the planet where industrial corporations trawl in ever-increasing amounts, and the outlook is bleak. It's not that "we cant see under the sea, so it's out of mind"; the sea is getting the same treatment as everywhere humans are exploiting the environment. If some people make a lot of money from it, any ecology will be absolutely decimated. Only where the damage is so casual that it's basically only from sheer laziness (and not monetary gain) do you have a chance of saving species - or at least without legal intervention.
Honestly, I congratulate any environmental organisation that uses horrifying imagery to try to awaken human sentimentality. I don't like that approach at all, but it's clear that only by stabbing through people's apathy can you even arouse their interest in a species, let alone compassion or interest in the relevant science. But through starting interest in just one species you can awaken interest in the wider environment and its conservation. At the very least you can make people take notice of the ecology-wide damage that is creating undeniable impending disaster for humanity as well.
After all, without sentiment, humans are just sociopaths and the most brutal predators on earth.
Very powerful documentory!
This is a really distinguished series, beautifully made.
Great documentary...please share and spread the word. Conservation is the only sane way forward and our responsibility to right the wrongs of the past. Support your local efforts.
Our responsibility as a species is to go extinct and let the animals work it out 😂 😂 😂
thank you for a wonderful show its a good lesson for the people of Australia
that was so informative and the photography was so good. What can I say it was just a wunderfull doccumentry and I will pass it on to my friends
"With this wind, it [North Rona] must have been a noisy old place to be."
Someone who knew FF-D once told me that forever after, if a wind was blowing outside, he could not sit still but would pace up and down the room.

We must preserve the fishing stocks around our coast for the good of future generations.
John Brown go on a website called marine traffic and have a look at the amount of Spanish and French fishing vessels raping our waters
JOHN BROWN, YOUR A SMART MAN, great comment
Wonder why anyone would believe that the supply of fish could never be over exploited.
Thanks for uploading these.
I have no words...
I love my oysters but I don't want to eat myself out of oysters.
I love these little documentaries...by the way, where can I find the soundtrack? The music is WONDERFUL!!
With all of the damage done over the past 2 centuries, leaving the majority of the ocean environment around the North sea a virtual desert, the utterly weak and feeble response of setting aside 1 square mile of ocean in a cove as a conservation zone is laughable and even insulting to the people in charge of such things. How on earth does anyone expect the tens of millions of square miles of habitat that has been destroyed to revive from this pitiful concession. I would like to see all of the trawlers and industrialized operations made open game for a few seasons and let these butchers try to recover from the onslaught. What is the livelihood of a few hundred men and their boats compared to the future of the ocean and all that live in it?
It is truly heartbreaking, but not just what we have done to the North Sea. We are destroying our planet, our home.
Greg Wrangler that is without a doubt most stupid thing I have ever heard. Everyone in the room is now dumber for having heard your comment. I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul
It's the multinational corporations making billions that won't stop. It's not just in the north but global decimation that has just gotten even worse in the last decade. If and when the fish stocks collapse completely, entire ecologies will collapse and humanity will starve (or rather, millions of people will starve). It's terrible that even with obvious and dire scientific evidence, nothing is being done on a large scale.
13:21 - now there’s more plastic than fish...
when the last animal of a species dies that species will suffer never more
❤❤❤
Im watching this for school lol
How did it happen he asks? 1 word.. GREED!!
+hallets1956 Not necessarily greed alone. Too many people tying to make a simple living off the ocean in this case. Treat this as a problem with one and only one solution will never see the problem solved.
''tying to make a simple living'' you must be joking, the ones who do the most damage are the ones who make the most money, e.g. the Tate family, millionaires through plundering British waters, not ''trying to make a simple living''.
Those trying to make a simple living have virtually no effect on the ecosystem, it's the big commercial outfits that do the damage.
Commercial outfits aren't making a "simple" living, they're raping the whole eco-system and making a shit load of money doing it!
the wrong word: overpopulation is the right one
*Capitalism
Find the water episode here- www.dailymotion.com/video/x3cwi2j It's been pulled because of water controversy- Scotland, who owns your water now?
Tell that to CHINESE, 50 thousand fishing boats with guns invading all waters on all coasts. NOW the Galapagos islands are getting fished out by the army of boats.
Rewilding
Hmm, for a guy wanting to conserve, he's pretty hands on with the minimal undersea wildlife there.
And taking a plane for a 2 minute flight? Surely a boat would have been better.4 years after the comment........:)
Mate, Scotland has a certain rugged beauty, but when I look, I see a barren wasteland. Hardly a single tree in the place. It didn't come like that, did it. Not to mention the birthplace of global warming.

@@robroy6804 Is that not what I said? All of Britain has been stripped bare.
Well you did it again! Yet another horribly depressing sad story of the greed of mankind. It appears they/we have learned nothing. We'll do our very best to forget this program. Best of luck!
Lalalalalal! Not nice so not listening! Going to wet my nappy and throw all my toys out of the pram instead! How the hell do you think we will get the message across when dorks like you don't want to hear? It is not going away, whether you like it or Not. And you are Not depressed! I hope you never are.
Christians never ate fish on Fridays...that was the Catholic Church. The early followers of Christ lived on fish, mutton, beef, chicken. I wonder who made money off of Friday Fish?
You're wrong, Friday fasting prohibiting eating meat and making fish the main protein those days was observed by Christians at least as far back as the III century
silly person
@@tampanativeson NOT TRUE ONLY SOME, THAT'S WHY THEY ARE CALLED CATHOLICS, worship the VIRGIN MARY, and SAINTS.
