Read an interesting news article in the Seattle Times. It was about the future of SRKWs. This was a report on a scientific paper that modeled the future. The conclusion was essentially extinction unless we make major, and painful, changes.

The paper covered lots of issues but concluded that we really don't have the will to save them. As an example, it has been shown that the reduction in marine noise in the Salish Sea has had a beneficial effect. At the same time, we are planning to bring in significantly more ships to support international trade and energy needs.

We haven't actually accomplished anything that gets them more food. And so on. As a society, we talk a good line but don't produce.
