I've actually stopped eating fish 8 months ago after reading an article on how the Asian coast lines are turning into barren waste lands. We are over fishing the planet. This river dolphin is a nice reminder that we're all a bunch of fat bastards, eating things into extinction, and also killing off many other things that rely them.

North America is no better, but we don't have nearly as many mouths to feed, so while we are damaing our fishing stocks, maybe there is still hope. Join me and start the fish boycott! Tuna stocks are getting shockingly low. The worlds fastest fish stands little chance against planes detecting schools from above whilist informing ships below of the tuna's location, entraping them with ease using nets the size of a football field.


BE SCARED!

Just as bad as over fishing is over fish-farming. Their waste seriously pollutes the water they live in and ruins the ecosystem. And since it's water, the waste travels and ruins larger areas than just those around the fish farms.

I already don't eat much fish. The most I have is a Friday fish fry of some haddock maybe once every two or three months.

Fish Farms exist because there is a market. Mankind can no longer live on staples. We must have variety and it must be available at all times.

I can't remember the exact tonnage but you'd be disgusted if you found out how many caught fish end up going bad because nobody buys them. Excessiveness is our new way of life. We need new cars every year, we need every kind of food the earth can produce, we need faster computers each month, we need to know the news on cnn every single day 24 hours a day, we need to know the current events as they unfold.

It's just too fucking much.

It's much too much.

How about if seabirds communicated with their pelican buddies, who talked the whales into coming from everywhere, to ram the fishing boats. Hope the whales were warned about the net.

The tuna doesn't taste like tuna anymore. wink.gif
