Ocean Thoughts and Nuclear waste of time

I´m just a little fish, at the bottom of the sea, trying to get some air but that´s not for free....I read somewhere that we have only explored 7% of the bottom of the ocean. How come? what about the rest of the 93%? Are we to busy stretching our limits out into space so we forget to take a look at what is actually going on in our own back yard? Grass is always greener? Well, let me tell you this much, the way we treat our oceans on this there won´t be much life left at all. That is scary stuff. I went on holiday to the Dominican Republic a few years back, and stayed at Punta Cana. They have an eco area, thinking organic and also held a few seminars on how to save the corals and reefs around the area . They showed photos where you clearly could see the difference from year to year. The Reefs are dissolving. I had to see for myself, so I decided to take a divers certificate. Suddenly I was a PADI Open Water Diver. My instructor had to hold my hand as I did my first dive. It was the strangest and most scary thing. Being a control freak....just letting go, trusting that my tubes will work perfectly 10 meters down under. Once I concurred that fear, it became the most wonderful thing.

 Weightless and small and a complete stranger in a world below that I know so little of and the  views of the underwater landscapes that left me breathless. 

But also, it left me kind of worried, almost like I could feel a collective sadness going on. The photos of the reef a few years earlier were much brighter and colorful. Now parts of the reef were covered in a brown mud kind of thing. 

Still beautiful fish and magic, but not as radiant.  I couldn´t help but wonder what the hell we are doing. 

So much stuff being dumped into the ocean on a daily basis, oils leaks from boats along with the fuel and why not get rid off some radio active waste as-well while we´re at it? 

There is just no place to dump in over water, it´s way to dangerous, so....let´s hide it down under and hope it never gets up to the surface. 

How stupid can we get? 

If you want to read some more of our human stupidity,  Greenpeace has some info on the link below.http://archive.greenpeace.org/nuclear/ospar2000/html/content/ospar00/docs/briefings/OSPARhistorybft.pdfLeaves me Speechless as I wonder, this could not possibly be a case of economy v/s sanity?? is it all about the.......dumdumdumdumdum  again?
