Top 25 Ignored News Stories
None of these news stories were truly censored (I actually knew about all of them in one angle or another) and not all of these stories are absolutely of the highest order of knowledge and truth. But it is a good list. Story number three, in my mind, should be number one. But we really haven't yet figured out how to fix it and it scares us so we push forward hoping for the next scientific breakthrough.
"Meanwhile, since its peak in 2000, the global wild fish harvest has begun a sharp decline despite progress in seagoing technologies and intensified fishing. So-called efficiencies in fishing have stimulated unprecedented decimation of sealife. Long-lining, in which a single boat sets line across sixty or more miles of ocean, each baited with up to 10,000 hooks, captures at least 25 percent unwanted catch. With an estimated 2 billion hooks set each year, as much as 88 billion pounds of life a year is thrown back to the ocean either dead or dying."
