Lira, Spain

8 years ago a massive oil spill paralyzed this little fishing village. Before the spill, caused by a tanker called Prestige, too many fishing boats exploited the resources from it’s very abundant waters. Generations of fishermen realized their young preferred pursuing a new life of education.

Today the waters have healed and the number of fisherman has been reduced to less than a decade before, but they are more productive and respectful to the bounties they harvest. A new appreciation and awareness arose from a tragedy. Could this be what we are looking at for in our Gulf of Mexico?

    I believe as you do Donna. We need to respect Mother Nature and all she has given us.

    I also believe in respecting mother nature and a spirit that is experienced once you realize that our heavenly Father created all of what we know and will find out more things to come through the Trinity”Father,Son and Holy Ghost.Jesus Christ is the real hope.The last days are here.All things will change as we know it;even mother nature.
