The ocean is so big that some people call it "the last great frontier." There is so much of the ocean we have not explored.

I really enjoyed it on Netflix, although it never found it's voice.
yet I read that every meter of ocean floor was physically 'plowed' multiple times over by fishers, on average.
Where did you read that? It can't possibly be right: the Pacific alone is 160M km^2.
Maybe they mean the area of ocean floor plowed > area of ocean, but the same parts of the ocean are being plowed over and over again by fishers. Most of the ocean is not being used for fishing.
