It's very frustrating when people can't see the big picture, like you say...and want to save only what they care about (the cute, fuzzy or obviously amazing creatures) and forget that it takes the entire ecosystem being healthy to do this.<br /><br />Thanks for this post.e.m.b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07745417913275444905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459904654078487715.post-39268946751542175202011-11-04T15:36:33.190+00:002011-11-04T15:36:33.190+00:00You may think your "rant" offers no solu...You may think your "rant" offers no solutions but it shows that you care. Thats the first step. The second step you have also taken...your post is a warning, a call to arms, and a step in the right direction. More education for those who are unaware of the dangers is needed. The next and most important step is to act based on our best understanding of what is not only good for us and future generations but what is good for the world as a whole. There are many times I feel EXACTLY the same way as you. Keep "ranting" bring attention to what is important.Kiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03264481445338519105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459904654078487715.post-38993346705336589402011-11-04T15:34:29.225+00:002011-11-04T15:34:29.225+00:00Scary that low water Andy.
