After watching Sharknado, by accident, I thought the world of shark fiction couldn’t get any weirder but the factual world has surpassed it.
A story about sharks testing positive for cocaine would seem farcical except that it was published in National Geographic and a number of reputable newspapers.
Basically the use of cocaine is so pervasive that it is damaging our environment when it gets into the water systems. If there was ever a point where we realised we need to protect the environment then the thought of a shark going through drug withdrawal must be it.
It’s time to make a real effort to protect our world from human frailty and greed.
