11/8 - Pacific Grim: Two depressing reports on the grim fate of the world's oceans

They're saying it, not me. Check out this article about two recent reports from WWF about the lawlessness and plundering still happening unabated in the world's oceans. It says ships are even being built specifically to evade regulations. It talks about a recent conference in which the reports made for "depressing listening." I hate to sound too much like my hero, Jeremy Jackson, but the outlook, according to this article, is pretty bleak.
