Oceans On Brink Of Catastrophe
 By Michael McCarthy

http://www.countercurrents.org/mccarthy250611.htm

The world's oceans are faced with an unprecedented loss of species comparable to the great mass extinctions of prehistory, according to the report, from a panel of leading marine scientists brought together in Oxford earlier this year by the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO) and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN)


If The Sea Is In Trouble, We Are All In Trouble
 By Sylvia Earle

http://www.countercurrents.org/earle250611.htm

The ocean is a living system that makes our lives possible. Even if you never see the ocean, your life depends on its existence. With every breath you take, every drop of water you drink, you are connected to the sea


The Oceans May Have Already Passed Breaking Point
 By Jean-Luc Solandt

http://www.countercurrents.org/solandt250611.htm

For all of the points raised in the report, this isn't a question of 'conservation for conservation's sake', but a fundamental necessity for the continued provision of vital life support for the population, of human and other living beings, that inhabit our 'blue planet'. The oceans may have already passed breaking point; if that's the case, we would never know – with scientific precision – until it is too late

Lies Our Leaders Tell Us –  "Nobody Could Have Predicted"
 By William Hicks

http://www.countercurrents.org/hicks250611.htm

We can say Peak Oil gained mainstream acceptance when we hear our political leaders start uttering the phrase: "Nobody could have predicted…"


The Diamond Industry's Double-Standard On Israel
 By Seán Clinton

http://www.countercurrents.org/clinton250611.htm

Diamonds are Israel's number one export commodity. The Israeli diamond industry contributes about $1 billion annually to the Israeli military and security industries. Every time somebody buys a diamond that was exported from Israel some of that money ends up in the Israeli military

Relevance Of V.P.Singh And His Politics
 By Vidya Bhushan Rawat

http://www.countercurrents.org/rawat250611.htm

To understand V.P.Singh, one needs to see his campaign and political strategies. He might have weakness like any other politician but he had conviction. At this moment, when we suffer from the hyper Hindutva and an aggressive upper caste lead Congress Party, we really miss this space of opposition which V.P. had the capacity to unite and organize. He was an elderly statesman who could have united the forces of social justice and secularism
