In The Cove, a team of activists and filmmakers infiltrate a heavily-guarded cove in Taiji, Japan. In this remote village they witness and document activities deliberately being hidden from the public: More than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises are being slaughtered each year and their meat, containing toxic levels of mercury, is being sold as food in Japan, often times labeled as whale meat. To really make an impact on this issue, we must get the word out in Japan and urge action from our own leaders. We believe that once the world and the Japanese people know, they will demand change. Help us save Japan’s dolphins. Click the link above to demand action from our leaders!
I have to agree with one of the commenter on biofuel. Example, Malaysia is merging as one of the leading biofuel producer and aim to be the largest biofuel plant in the world.
Every diesel sold in this country already has at least 5% palm oil substance. While development on biodiesel may leave us less dependence on petrol but anything we human do will have consequences to every living thing.
Cut down trees and grows palm oil trees may affect the orangutan habitat but not as nasty as those illegal logging in Sarawak (big possibility) and Indonesia that left the whole areas flatten with nothing left for the orangutan to call home.
Environmentalist should very much helpless if there’s not much of support from the peoples and the government concern in general. I am sure there are better way for the people in the world who love this planet and Orangutans to hand out their support though education and monetary support to the right channel.
In my opinion, this 1 minutes 27 second video isn’t enough to get through the public and may not reflect enough fairness to people of Sarawak who also help to contain Orangutans from extinction.
Pangaia in greek means “all earth” I love the idea of “Pangea Day”! You see, we are living in a beautiful world where every one wants to rules the world. When every one is busy trying to proof each and every one who’s the men, the poor and the weak who’s suffer the terrible misery!
Pangea Day is a global event bringing the world together through film.
Why? In a world where people are often divided by borders, difference, and conflict, it’s easy to lose sight of what we all have in common. Pangea Day seeks to overcome that – to help people see themselves in others – through the power of film.
What happen to the world today, you just can’t stop feeling sad and depress. So much for the ideology that kills women, children, our parents and the beloved. Of late, we have seen the worse natural disaster ever recorded and country like Burma allow their peoples to die without aids and foods. People are dying every day and we wish to do something about it! We want our wish to be granted to change the world to a better place! Jehane, TED, and the Pangea Day team have taken that first step.
4 hours of films and music was broadcast live on 10th of May, 2008 from Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai and Rio de Janeiro to mark the one day pangaia! Please watch the first 20 minutes of the broadcast below.
I am happy to have follow the 4 hours broadcast, the experience is superb! This global campaign has touched me and millions others. I hope you have enjoyed the story of Pale Blue Dot and The Ball! If the world we live in was undivided than earth is the heaven itself!
A Thousand Words is my personal favorite. It’s not hard to love and be love but sometime I think that first move is the hardest part of all. All the time we take thing for granted and only when it gone we regretted. Some time special things happen around us, on us, we are just too blind to see but we eventually realize the meaning of life.
You may have realized I have a REMO free T-Shirt button on my page. Yes, first T-shirt added to the cart is free – you pay only handling fees. You can order for your free Pangea Day T-Shirt through REMO. I show off mine below, I received the shirt on Friday.
The shirt is very comfortable, it’s 100% cotton and the ordering would reach your doorstep from Sydney, Australia! You will also get a catalog called Printed Thing. Cool stuff and please watch my video.
There were so many good speakers on the event, one of those who inspire me with his story was Anthropologist Donald Brown. He talks about Brunei culture where people who have lower ranking do not sit higher than the people who are higher ranking than them, it is consider impolite in Brunei culture.
Human are and must be sensitive to difference but too much focus on difference lurks behind way too much human conflict. Today, celebrating what we all have in common you should find hope and realizing how rich and numerous those commonalities are. — Donald Brown
At the end of the day, we just want to feel fine! Artist and computer scientist Jonathan Harris makes online art that captures the world’s expression. I wish the world be peace and loving, last but not least, We Feel Fine
