Doctor Helena Herr, the author of the fin whale study that was quoted everywhere from the New York Times to CNN about how the oceans are showing signs of hope, said in an exclusive interview with The Current Affairs Times on Thursday, “I think it is a trap if you witness some great natural event to extrapolate (that) to the whole ocean. Just because we have a positive sign in one place, that doesn’t mean the ocean is healthy again.”

She points to climate change, overfishing, and pollution as key issues facing the planet and the world’s oceans. But that doesn’t necessarily address why we are seeing growing numbers of charismatic megafauna.
