It looks like the captain is loading his crew with a lot of "red-shirt" personnel (see Star Trek).
I applaud the merit of their cause, but their methodology is whack.

If a tree falls in the forest and there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
If a inexperienced eco-terrorist gets killed in the middle of the Antartic Ocean, and no one sees or hears about it, does it really matter?

As for the Japanese "research" vessels, if no other country in the world goes through the trouble to circumnavigate the whaling laws of the world, why keep up the false pretense of kiiling 1000 whales every year? They must be the stupidest researchers in the world if they haven't learned all there is to learn after harvesting 1000's of whales already. (Just following their reasoning for killing the whales.)

The show will probably get axed when someone buys it.
