'My lifetime has coincided with the great age of ocean discovery. Over the last hundred years, scientists and explorers have revealed remarkable new species, epic migrations and dazzling, complex ecosystems beyond anything I could have imagined as a young man. In this film, we share some of those wonderful discoveries, uncover why our ocean is in such poor health, and, perhaps most importantly, show how it can be restored to health. This could be the moment of change. Nearly every country on Earth has just agreed, on paper, to achieve this bare minimum and protect a third of the ocean. Together, we now face the challenge of making it happen.'

Chris Hemsworth questions 'cost' of extreme biohacking as he opens up about Alzheimer's risk
The Thor star, 41, says there is a 'fine line' between trying to live forever and enjoying life for as long as possible. Chris Hemsworth has spoken out against turning to extreme methods to live longer, as he reflects on his own journey with ageing and wellness. The Thor star, 41, discovered in 2022 that he is at increased risk of Alzheimer's disease, following a gene test that revealed he has two copies of the APOE4 gene. The result arrived while he was filming the first season of Limitless, a National Geographic series in which he explored ways to age well and improve longevity. Speaking to the BBC, Hemsworth said that while the discovery prompted him to take better care of his health, he has "no interest to explore" the world of biohacking. Biohacking refers to a range of experimental approaches to "hack" human biology in order to improve health and wellness. The practice can involve small changes like dietary adjustments or using wearable technology, to the more extreme interventions of using technology or drugs to alter bodily functions. In recent years, American entrepreneur Bryan Johnson shot to fame for his biohacking interventions, which include spending millions of dollars on treatments, tests and scans, and taking numerous supplements and pills every single day. The 47-year-old claims he is trying to reverse ageing and wants to extend his lifespan. He documented his attempts and his anti-ageing regimen in the 2020 Netflix documentary Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever. But Hemsworth questioned whether it was worth committing to a life of "isolation" in order to extend one's lifespan, adding that while he plans to "put energy into health and wellness", he also wants to enjoy everything life has to offer. "You want to live a longer and better life, but at what cost? You could have your exact routine, but there's no point doing all of that if you're isolated and lonely at home," he said. He added that his own approach to longevity was to keep an open mind to how "different pieces of science resonate at different times in your life". Hemsworth also commented on the idea of living forever, and he doubted that anyone would ever be able to figure out how to cheat death. "Suffering comes from denial of our inevitability of death – we all have an expiration [date]," he said. "If you were told you had 200 years guaranteed, you'd become more complacent and reckless. "The idea that life can be taken away at any second is a beautiful reminder to appreciate every moment." Hemsworth's increased Alzheimer's risk The Australian actor previously revealed what a "shock" it was to receive the "intense" news about his risk of developing Alzheimer's due to his genetic make-up. He told Men's Health of the changes he made to improve and protect his health after the discovery, including reducing the amount of exercise he does. The move came as a surprise to fans, as Hemsworth is known for his muscular stature particularly in his role as Thor, but he explained that he felt it was important to "make time for stillness". Instead of the intense body-building exercises he was accustomed to, Hemsworth said he was "lifting less frequently", opting instead for "more cardio and endurance workouts". He also told the outlet that he is sleeping more regularly and having ice baths. Hemsworth appears in the forthcoming second series of Limitless: Live Better Now, which will be available to stream on Disney+ from 15 August. He lives in Byron Bay, with his wife, actress Elsa Pataky, and their three children, daughter India Rose Hemsworth and twin boys Sasha and Tristan Hemsworth.

Orcas Pretend to Drown Each Other in Rare Training Session Caught on Camera
Orcas are called 'killer whales' (even though they're technically dolphins) for good reason. They're the ocean's top predators, hunting down everything from great white sharks to blue whales—the largest animal in the world. But orcas aren't born killers. It's a skill they learn from their elders and, as new evidence suggests, practice on each other. Parenthood, a new five-part BBC wildlife series narrated by David Attenborough, includes the first known footage of orcas learning how to drown their prey, as first reported by The Times. The training session is led by a matriarch and consists of one orca pretending to be the prey so the others can surround it and practice pushing its blowhole under the water. Video Shows Orcas Left Behind in Algae-Filled Tanks Months After French Park Shut Down 'Specialised underwater gimbals and tow cameras were used to bring cameras alongside hunting orcas underwater. This technology allowed the crew to travel at the same speed as the orca hunting pack and provided new insights into their behaviour,' a BBC spokeswoman told The Times. 'The practice-hunting behaviour appears to show members of an orca family submerging the head of one individual to prevent it from breathing—the technique used by killer whales to hunt large whales. This practice-hunting behaviour has never been filmed before.' The footage was captured near Western Australia's Bremer Bay, the same region where, in April, horrified tourists watched 60 orcas devour an endangered blue whale. After the practice session, the series shows the orcas using their skills while hunting a blue whale caught by surprise. Blue whales can hold their breath for somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes. Orcas training their young how to hunt is just one of many parenting moments featured in the wildlife series, which was filmed over three years in six continents and 23 countries. 'I think it's got all the feels—it's got great behaviour, it's got great emotion, it's got great humour, it's got relatable parental dilemmas. And it has a nod and a wink towards 'helicopter parenting' and 'snowplow 'parenting'—all those different terms that we bandy about as to what type of parent you are,' Jeff Wilson, the director, told the BBC. The series footage required 'an observational, non-invasive' approach, he added. 'We're very proud of what we've put on screen.' The show aired on BBC One on August 3 and is available on BBC iPlayer. We don't know yet when the U.S. release will take place, but I'm sure those of you in the States can't wait. After all, who wouldn't want to hear Attenborough's mesmerizing voice declare, 'Success for all parents has perhaps the greatest of consequences. It ensures the future of life on our planet.'
