Beginning in January, the Marine Environmental
Research Institute (MERI) will begin airing “The Blue
Planet: Seas of Life,” a video series shot in more than
200 locations over five years. The series has been praised
for its stunning videography, stirring soundtrack by George
Fenton, and moving narration by British actor David Attenborough.
MERI will show the series in its entirety
throughout January and February, with each of the eight episodes
projected on a large screen for easier viewing. “Ocean
World,” the first in the series, will air Friday, January
10 at 7:00 PM at MERI’s Center for Marine Studies, 55
Main Street in Blue Hill.
Other titles in the series will be
shown on subsequent Fridays through February 28. They include
“Frozen Seas” on January 17; “Open Ocean”
on January 24; “The Deep” on January 31; “Seasonal
Seas” on February 7; “Coral Seas” on February
14; “Tidal Seas” on February 21, and “Coasts”
on February 28. Complimentary popcorn and beverages will be
provided, and donations for participation are welcome.
