Only in the big picture of the world does this relate to permaculture, but it's such a wonderful incident that I had to share. In mid-December, a fisherman off the coast of San Francisco, CA, saw a humpback whale tangled in crab pots, lines and weights so badly that she could barely surface enough to get air. He contacted an environmental group who arrived on the scene with divers. And it gets better! https://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.c ... /HUMPY.TMP Just thought it might brighten your day. Sue
