It's such a waste. I'm glad people are trying to do something about it.

Nice to see. This is an issue that I feel strongly about and have walked out of restaurants that served shark fin soup. I did so as loudly as possible....

Any reefer should watch the movie Sharkwater produced by Canadian Rob Stewart

It will change the way you view this subject immensely.

You also have to remember that 80% of the public just don't care about issues and have the "never in my lifetime" view on most topic's. Tuna for instance... I have boycotted tuna no matter how good it is for you.

WildAID is an organization that I strongly support, same with reefcheck.

Can you fill me in on the tuna problem? Are you just talking mercury or something else....net fishing perhaps?

On a related note have you guys watched "the cove" yet......if not I definately sugest it.
