This NASA Terra satelllite image released in 2003 shows a true-color image of the The Nile River Delta. A rush to drill in the gas-rich Mediterranean may do permanent damage to the sea's wildlife as it takes at least a millennium for an ecosystem to grow, the World Wildlife Fund warned Wednesday.

The area hosts rare and millennia-old species

Is the WWF supporting the notion that Creation is thousands of years old? Interesting.

We are the top of the food chain. Our duty is to perfect our species and to dominate all others. Our duty is to utilize anything provided to us to complete the never ending instructions to perfection.
“Being green” is a virus to our genetic programming that acts as any virus does, it replicates and subverts the system.
Every time you choose plastic over paper, then persons who plant trees for a living have been given less to do thus endangering their jobs and the ability to provide for their family(their evolutionary line),same can be said for those who cut the trees, to those who sell the wood, to those who make the paper, to those who make and sell the bags.
Every “green” decision that puts an inferior creature’s well being in front of our own does similar damage to our species. In theory and practice, the practice is an abomination.
Being green is a virus and should be treated as such.

The DBD (Drill Baby Drill) Society predicts vast increases in all ocean life if they drill in the Eastern Med, based on research done in the Gulf of Mexico over years of drilling.

They said the same thing in the Gulf of Mexico when the drilling rigs started decades ago, aside from last year the Mississippi dead zone from fertilizer runoff has done more damage there than all the drilling there combined.

When an organization like this that relies on donations for most of its operating funds it has to scream at every single thing just to appear that it is relevant and worthy of a check each year.

Destroy every last mollusk, worm, crustacean, cetacean, fish, sponge, or cephalopod in the Med for all I care. The sky won’t fall and nobody but a handful of eco-hippies will notice they’re gone.

PBS and I don’t mean the Public Broadcasting System even though they are pretty much the same.
