SYNOPSISA Clean Sea: The Rachel Carson Story is the biography of Rachel Carson, a marine biologist, who was the world’s first “environmentalist.” In her book The Silent Spring, she first warned the people of this planet that the pesticides are doing irreparable damage to the eco-system. Today, everyone has heard of the environment and pollution and toxic waste. Our youngest generation needs to know how they can participate in saving their present and future home.
Most of the videos are from Future Girls: Adventures in Marine Biology, an exciting adventure of two girls and a marine biologist in a submarine explaining the ocean and all its wonderful species. A unique presentation of the sea, 3D animation, live action and wonderful documentary footage of sea creatures.
