The occasion was a recent screening of the film Sea Ghosts which uses the Beluga whales as the "canary in the coal mine" to conveying the environmental consequences that await we humans. Ironically Sea Ghosts was on the same night that the Star Trek movie rebooted its space opera franchise, so we asked Fabien to comment on the disproportionate amount of research dollars being apportioned to space exploration over Earth's oceans. He also touches on some basic concepts for how our everyday actions wind up contributing to the pollution of our oceans and how that comes back to haunt us on our dinner plates. ]]> http://susty.com/fabien-cousteau-ocean-exploration-industry-pollution-toxic-chemicals-beluga-whale-consumer-pbs-video/feed/ 4 Found Animals: Rescue Critters for Adoption Live Webcam http://susty.com/found-animals-rescue-critters-for-adoption-live-webcam-video/ http://susty.com/found-animals-rescue-critters-for-adoption-live-webcam-video/#comments Wed, 29 Apr 2009 03:02:31 +0000 by Team Susty, Global http://susty.com/?p=6156 http://susty.com/found-animals-rescue-critters-for-adoption-live-webcam-video/feed/ 0 The Four Rs: Reduce, Re-Use, Recycle, Relate http://susty.com/reduce-re-use-recycle-relate-four-r/ http://susty.com/reduce-re-use-recycle-relate-four-r/#comments Mon, 27 Apr 2009 15:38:33 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=6059 Environmental Journalist Simran Sethi, fresh from her appearance on Oprah and in the wake of Earth Week, reflects of the fourth "R": the critical component that relationships of all varieties play in greening the world with justice for all.]]> http://susty.com/reduce-re-use-recycle-relate-four-r/feed/ 0
