Increasingly, the unsustainable practices of logging and salmon farming threaten wild salmon and are, ultimately, threatening the coastal ecosystem and First Nation way of life. The First Nations on the west coast of Canada have relied on salmon for income, sustenance and ceremonial purposes for thousands of years. Through interviews and archival footage, Belly Up identifies larger ecological issues surrounding salmon extinction. Belly Up shows why the coastal First Nations of Canada defend the environment and motivates the audience to consider the consequences of their dietary decisions. Written by Anonymous See less
