This is a five part series in the LA Times on the state of our ocean – very informative and well worth the time to read. The first of the series started yesterday and described how the run-off from fertilizer (and other pollutants) are “fertilizing” the oceans with basic building blocks of life that are causing more ancient forms of life, such as bacteria and jelly fish, to thrive while beginning to render more advanced forms of life, such as fish, extinct. We are literally changing the evolutionary structure of our planet through our pollution and waste.
