I don't do this too often. I like to be happy and upbeat and positive with you guys! But this time, I just can't help myself! I'm really fucking pissed off and I just have to share it!
If you have followed me at all then you already know that I am the whacky turtle lady. I have no idea why, maybe it is just because they are close to me (living on the beach) or maybe that it is they are so damn cute when they are babies. OR maybe it is just the fact we are and have been quietly and consisently killing them for years!
Anyways, back to my rant - being that I live on the coast, when the TED (turtle excluder device) was instituted for seine net fisherman there was a huge uproar. That cut directly into these fisherman's profits and I understood that but even the old time sailors have figured out a way around it now.
This picture is of 3 out of 17 DEAD sea turtles found drowned in a DISCARDED fishing net off the coast of Brazil! This wasn't even a fucking fishing net someone was using to make their living! It was nothing other than stinking TRASH!
And I understand that someone in Iowa will probably never throw something out their window driving through the middle of the country that will impact my precious sea turtles. But what will it impact? We are killing this planet slowly but surely and it has to stop! I'm not a PETA loving vegan tree hugger (no offense to any PETA loving tree huggers, btw) but for fucks sake, people, stop killing our world - your kids and grandkids and their kids and grandkids will really appreciate it! Even if you never know about it!
So PLEASE take the time to throw your trash away - don't be litterbugs, recycle, reuse, etc. as much as you can! You don't have to go overboard, but if everyone did a little bit every day I have to believe it will make some difference!
Thanks for reading my little rant - now, let's get back to porn and fucking! *wink
