AL GORE WAS FEASTING ON THIS VANISHING FISH YESTERDAY! Doesn't he care about the world's animals?!?!From People Magazine:
The youngest of Al Gore's three daughters, Sarah Gore, 28, married businessman Bill Lee in Beverly Hills on Saturday...The wedding took place at the Beverly Hills Hotel.... The family hosted a rehearsal dinner...Executive chef Helene An created a six-course tasting menu that included Chilean sea bass and roasted crab.

Some animals and fish disappear for a number of reasons. If they didn’t we would still have those big monster animals running around. Life goes on. One animal or fish leaves and others takes its place. Nature doesn’t live in a vacuum like some humans do.

99% of the species that ever inhabited the planet are extinct, and yet, life goes on.

If he lives in a house that uses 12 times the electricity as the average house, then the answer is “No.”

Don’t worry, Al bought some “vanishing species” credits from himself so it all balances out.

"Some animals and fish disappear for a number of reasons."
In this case it is due to overfishing a species. Also, see Grand Banks.

This is a fascinating story. The Chilean Sea Bass, known originally as the Patagonian Toothfish, was unknown till the late 70s. Even then, it was used mainly as a filler in fish fingers and the like. Suddenly, the gourmet industry discivered the fish and reckless overfishing has pretty much led to the extinction of the fish in LESS THAN 40 years.
Guess there are some perils to being popular...LOL.
BTW, Wall St. Journal had an excellent article a few months ago on the high stakes game being played over the remaining toothfish/sea bass stocks by various countries.
