The weather at Scott Base, Ross Island, Antarctica is (Crystal Ice Chime) getting warmer. Vostok was - 96 F, it ain't no more.



Some of the conservation societies have been waging a battle to save the biotic content of the Southern Oceans.

One of the them is "Sea Shepard."

Greenpeace is known globally for its good work in saving the lives of whales from immoral ambitions of whaling ships around Antarctica.

But, Sea Shepard is rarely noted for its determined efforts. They have an interesting website and seek protection for more than whales.

Not to diminish that importance. Baleen whales are one of the vital links to stopping and reversing the trend in Human Induced Global Warming, but, the other species that feed on algae, diatoms and krill are just as important. And Sea Shepard is correct in protecting them.
