It is a worldwide problem. In the Bhopal tragedy the Indian government and Union Carbide sunk to an all time low. The disgusting attempts at a coverup and the lack of human compassion are just unbelievable and revolting. Yet it happened! Everyone should know the true story.

How does all this relate to pearls? Why are molluscs having a hard time? What is the state of our oceans like today? Who is to blame? Ultimately we have to point the finger at ourselves. Do we care? Most governments certainly don't without public pressure. Bhopal showed just how much people didn't care(and still don't).

Everyone please read Julia Whitty's twelve page report on the state of our oceans. It will make you want to cry.
