“Given that plankton is the life-support system for the planet and humanity cannot survive without it, the result is disturbing,” says marine biologist and former Scottish Government adviser Dr Howard Dryden. “It will be gone in around 25 years. Our results confirmed a 90% reduction in primary productivity in the Atlantic. Effectively, the Atlantic Ocean is now pretty much dead.”

According to the Sunday Post, the research blames chemical pollution from plastics, farm fertilisers and pharmaceuticals. Previously, it was thought the amount of plankton had halved since the 1940s, but the evidence gathered by the Scots suggest 90% has now vanished.

This is just more fear-mongering.

They want to push their 2030 climate agenda where 90% of the people on the planet have nothing.

I know there are damages and we need to fix stuff but they say all this nonsense and do nothing about India or China where 90% of the ocean wastes come from.

So wait, America doesn't produce the most waste and pollution out of all countries? Many have been claiming for years that America is the most wasteful and polluted country on earth and provided the reasons why and how. Is this not true anymore?

As if this news isn't bad enough, our global bee population is also declining. Dick Gregory (r.i.p.) warned us years ago that losing bees would decimate our natural food supply, and here we are.

Do you know how filthy your country has to be if China, of all places, is calling you out?

Here's a picture of India and China calling each other "dirty", "polluted", and "overpopulated."
