Don't disagree that the government is the ONLY authority who can do something about changing the laws to prevent this but the government and in this case big business are synonymous. One lines the others pockets! Again are these guys breaking the law....no. Are they for that reason entitled to do what they do...unfortunately yes. The laws need to be changed but at the same time that doesn't mean any of us have to endorse what takes place every day. It's disgusting to see such a beautiful resource destroyed the way it is. The ecosystem in our oceans is no different than anywhere else. There's a balance that has to exist. These commercial techniques obliterate that balance!
