Please, no
I don't care because I never heard of it and you haven't made it seem very interesting or important so far.
UK here. Pacific there.
Ever heard of Africa? Same deal.
No what is that?
Apparently there's a Texas-sized section of ocean in the Pacific with high concentrations of floating plastic garbage due to the natural currents depositing it all in one spot. Supposedly it's a problem, but I think it's a good thing; it's nature's own garbage disposal.
Yes, but actually there are about 7 giant islands of garbage in the ocean. IIRC.
They're basically dead zones now coz it blocks all the light and the plastic kills the animals there.
Nobody cares because it doesn't destroy the beaches which we like to throw our rubbish on.
This thread is now about comparing countries to garbage heaps.
Synthetic Nitrogen Run-off creates deadzones. But collective trash islands at the very least create death zones
The difference is sharks are predators evolved with built in carrying capacities so they do not threaten the species the same way complete destruction of the environment does -_- but keep defending pollution
Nothing. It's completely true.
Maybe stating it as "built in carrying capacities" is not correct.
But I assume you meant that they cannot wipe out all of ocean life because they have "flaws" (really a good thing, but can't think of another word)
which means they are simply unable to do so.
All complex biological organisms are designed to live within their means. Human beings are an exception because oil has temporarily engorged our carrying capacity and when we run out it will shrink back down.
But my point was that it's simply laughable that someone would compare a shark with human contamination. And I don't have be some sort of environmentalist to state the factual difference between a poison and a predator.
Half the time I can't figure out why DV members need to argue or debate. What's to argue?
I don't think people don't care - I think they just don't really know about it. They don't know what it is, how big it is, or how it impacts the environment. :(
Also, the saying is true, seeing is believing. Telling someone about a tragedy doesn't spark empathy as much as showing them tragedy. Are there no journalists covering this environmental disaster?
told ya, no one cares. pretty disgusting if ya ask me. americans care about football and blowing the shit out of brown people. oh and jesus. thats about it folks.
Killing Jesus? Sounds like fun...
[ignorance] I say let the damned fish die. They're fish. And don't say it'll reduce food supplies. I hate seafood [/ignorance]
