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.

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.

You can bet if this were a Republican, the MSM would have been all over this story.

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.

There are different standards for the aristocrats and the peasants.

The American dream is that of "a shining city on a hill." The liberals lust for a mansion on a hill supported by serfs in the field. They get the Chilean Sea Bass we get the fish sticks: If we behave ourselves.

Al Gore: World's biggest windbag and phony.

What’s the problem here? Chilean Sea Bass (also known by the name Dissostichus eleginoides or Patagonian Toothfish is a legal fish species, though regulated.

Ducks are regulated too - so does that mean if he eats duck for dinner we should beat him down?

I do wonder how many of his Carbon Credits he burned up to have that meal, though.

The guy has to keep his strength up somehow. Pontificating about poverty is hard work. The poor guy is wasting away.
