The Dangerous Notion of Bountiful Oceans

Posted on 10:15 by hony
Friedersdorf:
The idea of the ocean as a place of limitless bounty persists even now. That is folly, as evidenced by a long list of over-fished species -- cod, herring, and now tuna are but three examples -- whose populations have collapsed in locales all over the world. It ought to be the defining environmental issue of our time.

It is not.

Read the fantastic post here. And pray for your children.
