unrelated, but the guy at the beginning sounds like Leo from That 70's Show

It's not just climate change, but also overfishing that depletes the oceans of their fish and other life… the overhunting that depletes our lands of game… and so on. It's not that you fish or that person hunts… it's that there's 100 million of you fishing and hunting… then, add in the big business with their whaling ships, shark (fin) gigging, and so on. Eventually, we will deplete our resources and then where will we be? peace

it's really not subsistence hunters like the inupiaq who are causing it though. they haven't caught a whale in 20 years. it's big industries, dynamite fishing, oils spills and chemical dumping, and then the culture of hunting and fishing only adds a cherry on top. but the big fishing business wouldn't need to catch if there wasn't any demand. I'll never eat fish, seafood, or anything with fish oil in it.
