Ecology

Wild Open Space
A call for politicians and local authorities to realise that we need our greens in order to be healthy. More wild open space and less desecration of the last remaining green areas that people in the towns and cities have left. Spread people out a bit rather than cramming them all into confined spaces and intermingle communities with areas of wild open space.

Ocean Restocking
A request for governments to put more effort into restocking our oceans of depleted fish types. The oceans are a magnificent natural larder. Perhaps we just need to think in terms of putting something back to replace what we take from it?

Square Mesh Nets
A call for fishing fleets to use square mesh nets instead of diamond mesh. The square mesh enables small fish to escape and live another day, whereas otherwise, they just go to waste, compounding the depletion of our natural oceanic fish.

Atmospheric Modelling
A call for an investigation into the viability of generating ozone, if needed, and the reduction of carbon-dioxide, or whatever else is necessary to start helping to reverse the accumulating problems of global warming, the resulting climatic changes, and possible associated dangers.

Alternatives To Oil
A call to put much more emphasis on finding alternatives to oil and oil based systems. Oil is a very useful commodity, however, it is also very dirty, a major cause of war, exploitation, pollution and global-warming. All of which can be avoided if we can develop the necessary alternatives. Sounds like a good enough reason for governments to be putting some serious emphasis on doing just that. However, as usual when it really matters, they seem to be a bit slow off the mark and just a few years behind! Sorry, did I say a few years, more like a few decades! Come on guys! Pull those fingers out! You seem to have plenty of money to invest in finding ways of destroying ourselves. What about finding ways to survive and prosper? Do our governments exist to engineer our destruction or our survival, and what is more important? Now there's a question!
