As the Gulf Coast disaster continues, people everywhere are especially conscious of the harm we can inflict upon the earth. Now glaringly apparent, our shared responsibility to tread lightly calls into question anything that would carelessly risk the destruction of ecosystems and life. Agriculture Defense Coalition co-founder Rosalind Peterson joins us to discuss a Navy weaponry training project that will decimate ocean life on an unimaginable scale. Over the next five years, the Navy anticipates over two million "takes" (significant disruptions in essential marine life activities) per year, totaling nearly twelve million "takes" for the period. Many of the project's programs have already been implemented and, in some cases, approved by NOAA and deployed. Tune in as Rosalind Peterson shares the details.
