“Isn’t it disgusting that the police will quickly arrest a few anarchists for breaking a few windows, yet BP executives who trashed an entire ecosystem and communities walk free? Such is the violent nature of capitalism.”

“I think the problem is, that we don’t understand what we are. In essence we’re, uh, you know, just a conceited naked ape, but in our minds we’re some sort of divine legend and we see ourselves as some sort of god, that we can just walk around the Earth deciding who will live and who will die, and what will be destroyed and what will be saved. But the fact is, we’re just a bunch of primates out of control.
We’re now in the midst of a Third World War, but this time the enemy is ourselves and the objective is to save the planet from ourselves. There is no hope for the masses of humanity to do anything. They never have, they never will. All social change comes from the passionate intervention of individuals or small groups of individuals.
Slavery wasn’t ended by any government or any institution. Women got the right to vote not because of any government. The civil-rights movement, the same thing: India with Mahatma Gandhi, South Africa with Nelson Mandela. Again, it’s always individuals. You need those individuals with the passion and the energy to get involved. In fact, I don’t know of any governments or institutions that are doing anything to solve any of these problems. All over the world, though, I am seeing individuals and non-government organizations that are passionately involved in protecting ecosystems and species, and that’s where I see some optimism. That’s where results are happening.” —Paul Watson, Sharkwater (2006)

People have been trained by the big food companies — and even government regulators to a large extent — that what they choose to eat has almost no bearing on their health outcomes. The establishment would rather have you believe that your genes control your health while glossing over the far more important point that it is your diet that controls the expression of your genes.

“Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little.”

“The less you open your heart to others, the more your heart suffers.”

“Loving each other is the closest we can get to loving God.”

It would be a huge conservation loss (and a crime) if this would occur. It has been banned for 20 years, why would we let this happen!? Studies show that whales and dolphins should be granted the same rights as humans based on intelligence and communication studies. Many scientists are fighting for their rights, and this would deal a huge blow to progress. These animals deserve protection!
