Trees make pulp
and it's not funny.
Pulp makes paper
and paper makes money.

Surfers are a litmus test of the health of our oceans. Save The Waves Coalition's new film, All Points South, relates how surfers and fishermen in Chile are joining together to fight against rampant pollution from the pulp industry, and how consumers can help by making better choices when buying paper.

From California to the long left points of Southern Chile, surfers increasingly find themselves in the line of fire between coastal waters and industrial pollution. In All Points South the journey takes us to Southern Chile, where pulp mill pollution threatens entire ecosystems, an ancient way of life, and threatens to tear apart a tight-knit fishing community. With world-class surfing at some of the planet's best point breaks, this is the story and journey of a group of surfers and their effort to expose the injustice being done by a powerful, worldwide industry.

Featured surfers: Ramon Navarro, Keith Malloy, Timmy Turner, Joao de Macedo, Leon Vicuna, Nano Zegers, James Pribram, Edgar Nozes, Brett Schwartz.
