The Outlaw Ocean

The Outlaw Ocean by Ian Urbina. Hard to read at times, do to the subject matter being so disturbing. This book outlines with several different scenarios that troubles of the earth's oceans: over fishing, pollution, forced labor. The author makes the point that the oceans have seemed to be a limitless resource, so 'abusing' them has not been taken seriously by many people. However, the reality is very different. The oceans are the first line that show the affect of climate change, and the rate of acceleration is pretty scary.
