"One reviewer has called it a “global warming horror documentary.” And there is certainly plenty to fear as Huseby—and the audience—learns more and more about the threat of ocean acidification. He interviews scientists who tell him 118 billion metric tons (or 118 billion VW Bugs worth) of CO2 have already been absorbed by the ocean. He watches the enamel of a human tooth quickly dissolve after sitting in a cupful of carbonated water. He listens during a conference where scientists ask each other how they missed this big issue—and whether we’re already screwed (answer: probably).
But despite all this, A Sea Change emerges as more love story than horror flick. . . .
Huseby is more energized than ever in his quest to publicize the dual threats of ocean acidification and global warming. During a panel discussion following a Seattle International Film Festival screening, Huseby announced that he’ll be attending the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen this December and will be showing the film there. He’s also planning screenings for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and a UN delegation. He’s even been asked to testify on the topic in front of Congress.
“We have a 10-15 year window to make some noise,” he said. “I would love to see the term ‘ocean acidification’ become part of the political discourse.”
And thanks to this film—and Huseby’s love of the ocean—it just might."

That means eating only kosher food and keeping meat and dairy products separate. It means doing nothing classified as work on the Sabbath, or Shabbat - even riding in a car. It means sending their children to a private religious school so that they become steeped in the traditions of their faith. Says Guy: "Kids that go to public school - a high percentage of them lose their religion." Andsadf each of those practices comes with a high price tag attached.

I am very interested in seeing this. The ocean is very important to every living being on this planet and deserves our immediate attention.
