No- WE Are Broken...


Not just the ocean.  The simple fact is- we cannot exist without it...

At the end of this century when people no longer have access to what was once the biggest source of protein on... earth, some will ask why we allowed our biggest giver of life to turn into an open sewer where only jellyfish can survive amidst the tons of floating plastic, garbage and other detritus. They will ask why we simply watched it happen, allowed it to happen, and still did absolutely nothing- knowing full well that we cannot possibly survive without it.


And all we'll be able to say is... because we're human; and when you come down to it, killing is what we do best. Oh, we can build and create, sing and even love, but killing is what we're best at. Sometimes it makes no matter what we kill, or how we do it, long as there's something left to kill: human, plant or animal. We can always ask why later...

Meanwhile, in Peru, thousands of dolphins are butchered and being used as chum for sharks. Those animals are at least as intelligent as we.

There's an old saying: When the last tree is gone, when the last animal is gone, only then will Mankind realize you can't eat money.
