ECO-LOCATIONS

"The simple but false equation sooner or later becomes, by an unexpected act of revenge of logic, the undertaking that fails, the dike that bursts, the bridge that collapses;  it is financial ruin when it is not the sinister reaper of...lives."

NO FISH
Humanity has shown a negligible desire to treat the natural world responsibly.  No where is this more evident than in our repeated mutilation of marine environments---drift nets, long lines, overfishing, bycatch, bottom trawling, lobster traps.  If you agree, consider participating in the NO FISH movement. We don't need legislation to change things;  if there's no market for unsustainably harvested seafood, the destruction will stop.  Remember the dolphin-safe tuna boycott of the late 80's.
