For some reason, as I was growing up, I thought I might one day be a marine biologist. I don't know all why, but then ... I never was.
I sometimes think we are like fleas to the earth, like fleas on a dog. We cannot survive without what the earth provides.... and yet we are destroying it left and right. We are sad, greedy creatures as a whole. I'm thinking climate change is happening because Mother Earth is try to scratch some of us off !! LOL
I love programs about the sea and all the different things that are in it. You caught some very nice photos. I enjoyed looking at them.
It would be a pretty interesting profession, not all diving and boating of course, but still pretty interesting for sure.
I agree with your second paragraph and it's very sad considering our overuse of the planet and its resources could be reasonably easily mitigated by some sensible action, less consumerism and other such behavioural factors...but humans seem incapable of that on a scale large enough to arrest the decline. Fleas on a dog for sure.
Thanks for taking a look, those are some weird-ass creatures huh?
