Around the World

I know this sounds like the post for TOMORROW when we pass thru the Drake Passage, the convergence of the Atlantic, Pacific and Southern Oceans. It can be a dangerous voyage since at this latitude the currents so not meet any resistance of any land masses, in any direction, making waves 40' high at times.

IT IS NOT!! The purpose of this post was actually the topic of Global Threats to Whales and Seals. We heard a very interesting lecture on how to protect whales, seals and their environment. Dr Finkler (who wrote this book) reminds us that instead of letting scientists just come up with all the ways we are killing the Oceans and writing the obituary for these many marine mammal species, we need to be "hopeful" and move action because we can make a difference. We can co-create support conservation organizations, solve plastic pollution, work harder on sustainability, increase education, and change policies that help protect the habitat.Weiterlesen
