I heard about those statistics on the radio this morning at about the same time they announced the removal of the ban on the "Geelong Star". The massive 95' long factory trawler is going to be allowed to fish 24 hours a day in Australian waters and has permission to catch 16,500 tonnes of pelagic fish a year. It has already admitted killing 9 Dolphins and 4 seals since February this year.

Population control will inevitably occur when there are insufficient resources to sustain current numbers. The watch our standard of living!
By then, Woko, it will be way, way too late for many of earth's creatures.
When I was young, I never understood what my mother meant, every time there was a major disaster and thousands of people vanished,
she used to say: not enough to solve the planet's problems.
