You have an emotional need to look at what's going on inside yourself and in the world around you -- at all the craziness -- and say, "I'm going to be happy anyway. I've made a conscious decision. We either cry or we dance. I've decided to dance."

Dirty Greek - Depressing Ocean Map Highlights Damage
  Environment : Depressing Ocean Map Highlights Damage
You are NOT on the DirtyGreek.Org homepage. Please CLICK HERE to go there.

"A group of scientists has drawn a map that leaves the land blank and highlights what humans have done to the world's oceans. The team was led by Ben Halpern of the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis in Santa Barbara, Calif. Halpern says the goal is to focus more attention on a part of the world that seems out of sight and out of mind.

It's not a pretty sight. Full story at NPR. The one bit of good news:
"The team that drew the new map of the oceans is now working on more detailed regional maps that might be used to predict emerging threats to places like the waters off the coast of California.
Let's hope that does some good. Yikes.
