On this edition of Your Call’s One Planet Series, internationally renowned photographer Chris Jordan joins us to discuss his new documentary Albatross, a powerful and intimate visual journey about the lives of these magnificent seabirds.
He focuses on the devastating effects of ocean plastic on the lives of albatrosses on Midway, a remote island in the North Pacific Ocean. He films tens of thousands of albatross chicks lying dead on the ground, their bodies filled with plastic. What does this say about our society and what can be done about it?
