The Arrogance Of Science

Here is a scientist who says she knows how to keep whales healthy:

Here's how I think we can help keep them healthy:

1. Stop shooting them with crossbows and pestering them with drones.

2. Stop shooting them with harpoons and eating their flesh.

3. Stop killing the things they eat.

4. Stop putting plastic, toxins, and radioactive waste into the oceans.

5. Stop drilling into the sea bed in search of oil, gas, and other things humans covet.

6. In short, leave whales and their environment alone.

Capisci?
