| runtime = 85 minutes | country = Canada | language = English }} ''Revolution'' is a documentary movie by Rob Stewart. It follows the filmmaker as he follows up on his earlier movie, ''Sharkwater'', and examines both looming environmental collapse and what people, especially young people, are doing to avert it. ==Synopsis== While on assignment to photograph sharks in the Galapagos Islands, Stewart became aware of illegal longlining, indiscriminately killing sharks within the marine reserve. In an effort to promote awareness of the situation, he decided to make a movie to bring people closer to sharks, a four-year effort that resulted in ''Sharkwater''.〔 (Rob Stewart Biography ); accessed 2013.03.01.〕 ''Revolution'' begins with Stewart and an assistant in the water with sharks, and expands from there to saving the ecosystems we depend on for survival. Stewart travels to 15 countries,〔Ben Kaplan, (Rob Stewart puts swimming with sharks aside to start a Revolution )", ''National Post'', Dec. 9, 2012; accessed 2013.03.02.〕 visiting such locations as the coral reefs of Papua New Guinea, deforested regions of Madagascar, and the Alberta tar sands. He comes to the realization that all of our actions are interconnected and that environmental degradation, species loss, ocean acidification, pollution, and scarcity of food and water are limiting, even reducing, the Earth's ability to support humans.〔(Revolution Movie Synopsis ); accessed 2013.03.01.〕 Traveling the globe to meet with the individuals and organizations working on a solution, Stewart finds encouragement and hope, variously pointing to the revolutions of the past and highlighting the current work of selected people. If people were informed about what was really going on, he argues, they would fight for their future, and the future of other generations. In time, he concentrates on the efforts of the young, as they have the most to lose: climate change and environmental collapse could take long enough that their elders may not be around to see the worst of what they have done.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Revolution (2012 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
