Grim


The news this week has been grim indeed.

No fish in the worlds oceans within the next 40 years.

The worlds oceans to rise, displacing 40 million people.

No water to drink.

All the worlds animals will die.

Will it make a difference if you recycle? Will it matter if you remember to switch off all your electrical appliances when you are not using them?

It will, but probably not in your lifetime.

I don't have any children, but I have a niece and I would like her to grow up in a world where there are Polar Bears and Penguins, Gorillas and Chimpanzee's, Giraffes and Hyena's, Whales and Dolphins. In a World where people are not warring over water or where millions of people have no where to live.

So, if all of us just do one thing.

Switch off the plugs, recycle empty bottles, if all of us did one thing then maybe there will be a beautiful world left behind for our children, whether they be son's or daughter's, niece's or nephew's, God Children or the Children next door.

We at TrotterandFing are going to stop eating fish from non-sustainable sources.

Remember, Cod made us in his own image.
