Some sections of the article:
"The American military has poured hundreds of tonnes of human sewage and waste water into a protected coral lagoon on the British-owned base of Diego Garcia over three decades in breach of environmental rules, The Independent can reveal."
"Despite these undertakings, it has emerged that US Navy vessels have been discharging waste water, including treated sewage, into the clear lagoon ever since a naval support station was established on Diego Garcia in the early 1980s."
I know that this source is questionable, as are all sources, and we should read with caution. Everyone has an agenda, including me, so keep that in mind as well.
However, it is really shameful what modern man is doing to this planet. Literally crapping everywhere. Trashing the planet more and more each day. With their lovely navies, with their lovely air forces and armies. Destroying everything. Now they think they are going to frack and drill "responsibly." Yeah.
This is just a tiny, tiny example of what is going on. But apparently no one cares. They don't care because their life has not been impacted directly, but maybe indirectly. When one is affected then one will care(??). So how long do we have until all this starts affecting us directly? Or will we justify it by claiming that we must accept pollution because of "modernization" and all that BS?
But with overpopulation, over-consumption, materialism, and with education encouraging even more consumption things don't look good. Science is all about giving humans their gadgets and their conveniences. It's not really about making the human better in the deeper sense; it's about keeping him entertained with gadgets and technology. This is what is being pushed upon the world. Now your going to have India, China, Africa, South America and elsewhere consuming all sorts of "natural" resources so they can get their gadgets and technology.
We're heading towards a planet of maybe 8 billion people soon. All being educated to consume. All being propagandized by their own society and by the global media to get an education in order to consume and buy, buy, buy. For Western people, who are already in this circle, this isn't new. However, elsewhere in the world, this is being brought about. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how this planet will handle a frenzy of 8 billion people competing, fighting, consuming all against one another. All for what? I'm not sure myself.
