My mistake. I thought the moral high ground was to use a food resource in a sustainable manner. Or is it not my mistake but yours after all. Is it moral to deny another alternative food source in a world where many are starving?.
Mr Garrett has provided a timely example of what happens when environmentalists assume they what they set as the moral high ground can work in the real world. While he was giving priority to whales and reptiles, he completely forgot that he had been given a real job which he neglected with disastrous results.
Completely disagree with this "While he was giving priority to whales and reptiles"
Yes, I forgot to mention that he was also giving priority to knocking back Traveston Dam on grounds of "national environmental significance', one of which was a bum-breathing turtle. He thus ensured that S.E Queensland , in times of water shortage, would be dependent on desalination plants, which are an environmental disgrace.
Even as an herpetologist the turtle didn't excite me much, but pointing out one of the least important things in the dam doesn't seem objective if you're ignoring the lung fish, one of the most biologically unique and medically important species in the world.
Of course, you're going to be disappointed when it becomes official that Australia has no claim to those waters, and the 1% of the world who currently recognises those claims will join the 99% who currently don't.
Right. Except that they do quite nicely in reservoirs.
I won't be disappointed. That's my viewpoint exactly.
Apparently if they are anti-whaling, Australia and NZ will not only condone any terrorist activities by the eco-terrorists, but will provide port facilities. In my opinion Japan has a good case to take to the International Court regarding these two countries aiding and abetting terrorists.
How come no1 is protesting about the killing of cockroaches? or ants?
You see this is the problem with animal libbers and all other greenies, when they become "emotionally" attached all hell breaks as they focus purely on their emotional agenda and dont care what goes on around them.
I haven't seen any Japanese whalers get slaughter yet by the Sea Sherpard crew. So far, the Japanese whalers have sunk one Sea Sherpard craft, while the Japanese whaling fleet are intact.
You can not be serious?
You obviously do not own any pets?

If you believe someone is doing something illegal, the ethical way to take action is to take legal action or passive protest, not cause violent conflict.
the Sea Shepherd's actions are hardly what I would call "violent". The Sea Shepherd stategically tries to maximise its "inconvenience" of the Japanese whalers and provides a visible presence against illegal Japanese whaling.
What a ridiculous lie Mac. Why don't you ask the japanese sailors who's skin has been burned and required medical treatment just how "non violent" the people from the sea shepard have been.
I believe that is where you and the rest of the anti whaling fleet are losing public support. Lies, lies and more lies. A lie by omission is still very much a lie.
Harden up Sdajii, the Sea Shepherd's actions are hardly what I would call "violent". The Sea Shepherd stategically tries to maximise its "inconvenience" of the Japanese whalers and provides a visible presence against illegal Japanese whaling.
Going the passive path has proven fruitless and the Sea Shepherd crew are venturing to the coal face to take some tangible action instead of just "taking the talk".

Dream on Macquack. What a load of tripe. These rich, well funded sea hoons are harassing the Japanese just because they get a kick out of it. They dont give a stuff about the whales. I see racist overtones in their actions.
