Inspired by "Dark Matter" and Eddie’s poignant vocals, SeaLegacy’s video amplifies the urgent call to action for our planet's future, revealing the plight of our world through nature’s lens. In this era of rapid environmental change, endangered marine species and vulnerable coastal Indigenous communities face mounting threats. Renowned photographer and filmmaker Paul Nicklen, together with creative producer and film editor Jason Smith, combine Nicklen’s breathtaking imagery with Pearl Jam’s passionate appeal for collective action. Together, they shine a spotlight on the urgent need to combat overfishing, pollution, and the devastating impacts of climate change on our oceans and marine life. View the video.
