This article just solidifies the fact that there is a great need for alternate energy sources in the near future. The supply of oil is rapidly coming to its end, which means that options such as solar and nuclear should be researched and implemented. Our country is in such dire need for other energy options that political figures are becoming involved and budgets are being made in order for progress to be made.

Experts Debate Limits of Fish Farming
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/01/science/earth/01fish.html?ref=science
This article is about fish farming and its explosive growth over the past decade. The fish that people are eating is increasingly coming from fish farms, where various types of fish are raised specifically for human consumption. Experts are concerned that fish from these farms are not the best for human health or the environment, and that fish populations are reaching a dangeous low. The whole industry of aquacultre has dramatically increased the amount of fish that humans consume, and it is only a matter of time before we are going to see many fish species dissapear.
