KRILL SHORTAGE KILLS WHALES AND PENGUINS

Happy Feet co-writer John Collee is not a happy man:
“The planet is largely covered with water yet we have this bizarre delusion that we can utterly destroy our marine ecosystems and somehow emerge unscathed. Coral reefs are in terminal decline. Whales and penguins are literally starving to death as a result of krill depletion. As regards global warming - the entire West Antarctic ice sheet is balanced on the tips of mountains and fragmenting at the edges. ... The horrible reality of our war on the environment is so dark that most people don't want to contemplate it.”
Imagine that, an entertainment type who's an amateur climate scientist.
