1. 'All Points South' Trailer - a new documentary by …
1 year ago
Coming out in Summer 2009, 'All Points South' is the 3rd and latest documentary film produced by Save the Waves Coalition. It is about pulp mill pollution in Southern Chile and what all of us, as consumers of paper, can do to influence the problem.

From the blog of Will Henry, founder of Save the Waves:

"I have been visiting Chile since 1992, making an annual pilgrimage south to sample what I consider to be one of the world's best surf destinations. What I have learned over the past 15 years is that the coastline is being raped by industrial interests. This discovery has led to Save the Waves Coalition's ambitious campaign to put a stop to this abuse. We as surfers, along with the many thousands of native fisherman that eek out an existence along this coastline, will bear the brunt of this increasing threat of pollution. But we as world citizens cannot afford to ignore it. Chile's fisheries are some of the richest in the world, and they are rapidly disappearing. The fish that survive may someday be too contaminated to eat. What we hope to convince the Chilean government is that this is not a sustainable plan for the future.

'All Points South' will feature surfing from some of the world's best - Keith Malloy, Raph Bruhwiler, Timmy Turner - and some of the hottest upcoming surfers from Chile, such as Ramon Navarro, Leon Vicuña and Nano Zegers. On our last trip, accompanied by Portuguese friends João Valente, Edgar "Macaco" Nozes, and João "Massas" Macedo, we scored 16 straight days of perfect surf, including sessions at Puertecillo, Punta de Lobos, and string of secret spots in the deep south, hosted by our good friend Sergio "Pocha" Susarte at the home of the infamous Masi. Our luck couldn't have been better. Let's hope that our luck against CELCO will, in the long run, prove equal."

    EXCELLENT! Nice work.
    I wonder if industries will think about enviromental damage.
    And pichilemu is saved at least, the government is making some studies to build some sewage water treatment plant.

    Sorry if my english is not good at all.

    Greetings from Chile
