“It is a curious situation that the sea, from which life first arose, should now be threatened by the activities of one form of that life. But the sea, though changed in a sinister way, will continue to exist: the threat is rather to life itself.” WayLifeShouldFirstsFormExistenceSituationEnvironmentSeaChangedActivityOceanThreatEnvironmentalCuriousConservationThreatenedOur EnvironmentSinisterEnvironmentalistBiologistMarine LifeSave The EnvironmentOcean SeaSilent SpringOceans And SeasSea LifeThe Wild NatureBeach And OceanBeach OceanOcean ConservationMarine BiologyMarine BiologistWild Sea Book:The Sea Around Us Source: The Sea Around Us
“Re. the Caribbean Conservation Corporation Everybody in the organization has subscribed to the original concept that its most important attributes are a single-minded resistance to any distraction from the central aim of keeping watch over the Tortuguero nesting colony and a determination to make it the most thoroughly studied sea turtle population in the world.” WorldImportantWatchesSeaConceptsDeterminationOrganizationOriginalsAimPopulationResistanceCorporationsDistractionAttributesConservationMarineColonyCaribbeanTurtlesSea Turtle Author:Archie Carr

“Quantum events have a way of just happening, without any cause, as when a radioactive atom decays at a random time. Even the quantum vacuum is not an inert void, but is boiling with quantum fluctuations. In our macroscopic world, we are used to energy conservation, but in the quantum realm this holds only on average. Energy fluctuations out of nothing create short-lived particle-antiparticle pairs, which is why the vacuum is not emptiness but a sea of transient particles. An uncaused beginning, even out of nothing, for spacetime is no great leap of the imagination.” WorldWayUsedReligionEnergyCausesImaginationSeaEventsHappeningsAverageRealmsEmptinessPairsLeapAtomsVoidDecayQuantumConservationParticlesVacuumsTransientBoilingShort LivedFluctuationEnergy ConservationSpacetime Author:Taner Edis
“There are parliamentarians in Australia I really support. People through history, you know? Men like Ned Kelly in Australia who challenged ideals. Governor William McKell in Australia really set the tone of building a nation. The fundamentals of the country are built on what the governor McKell created. I think Sea Shepherd (Conservation Society) is a wonderful organization and I support what they do.” PeopleThinkingKnowsMenCountryNationsSupportWonderfulSeaBuildingBuiltIdealsOrganizationFundamentalsToneAustraliaGovernorsKnow MeConservationShepherds Author:Dustin Clare
“I grew up in a whaling town. We didn't stop whaling in Australia until 1978. And I've always lived in fishing communities. You could say I'm from the Redneck Wing of marine conservation. Everything I know about the sea I learnt at the end of a spear or a hook. Seems weird to admit it, but I hunted and killed my way to enlightenment. Eventually you see where you've been. All the traces you leave are gaps and absences. And it's a sick feeling, knowing you might bequeath a full dose of Nothing to those who come after you.” KnowsWayEndsFeelingsSeemsMightCommunityKnowingSeaGrewGrew UpEnlightenmentSickTownsWingsAbsenceMy WayAustraliaFishingGapsConservationHookMarineRedneckDoseSpearsHunted Author:Tim Winton
