In Tokyo, there are unapproachable “lost islands” where unspoiled environs cradle rich wildlife. Sofugan is a 100-meter-high solitary rock pillar standing in the ocean 650km south of the capital city’s center. Remote and difficult to access, it had never been explored in detail. A group of scientists and engineers set out on a two-year survey. This program records their journey, along with the creatures they discover - from unusual species amongst the rugged rocks to mysterious marine life in the surrounding deep sea.
Tomorrow’s Fish presents an exciting new angle on conservation. If you think fly fishing is all about peaceful mountain streams and trout, think again. Embarking on a breathtaking adventure to “fly the salt” off the coast of New York City with two intrepid guides, we experience the frontier gutsiness that stokes their intense commitment to ensuring a sustainable future for ocean fisheries, wildlife, and the ecosystem as a whole. It’s a powerful pursuit in an unlikely wilderness, where we are sparked to celebrate - and fight for - the infinite value of connecting to something real, something deep, something quintessentially wild.

Year after year, harmful algae blooms are impacting the state of Florida and its wildlife on an unprecedented level. Scientists from Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute are committed to using their research to understand why these toxic algae blooms are occurring in greater numbers. Without knowing what the “switch” is, there is no way to turn it off.
