about: enviro crises overseas....
CLG> Egypt, India and Thailand -- and I need/would like her to confront
If she goes via the Mediterranean (cruise?) there are many
pages you could write. The Greek Islands are ugly and bare, the
Biblical cedars of Lebanon aint, the reefs in the South of France
are dead, just for starters. Oh! And the Med is fished out and
polluted. In Thailand the waters are so fished out that the fishermen
don hardhats and noise makers and walk on the bottom herding the
very last of the fish towards hand placed nets. Rice farmers are
being displaced with high value, low food yield fish farms.
India is a joke. Check out the waterworks in Egypt.
National Geographic has lotsa cool pictures that will give you
a feel for it. What blows me away is the historical perspective.
What was, what is. A bald barren, island means nothing unless you
know what was.
