I have seen the ravaging effects of our insatiable culinary desires on our world's most fragile of ecosystems first hand, during my years living in the Western Pacific. The industrial floating cities, flagged by far away Asian tigers, lights blazing 24 hours a day, seemed otherworldly within the backdrop of the verdant, placid environment. These floating cities were, and are, raping the oceans; they are cleaning out the vastness of the seas; they are leaving yet another unfortunate gift to our next generation.
