I suspect that whales do that just for the sheer joy of it. I wish we could decipher whale song so we could hear them say 'WHEEEE' when they breach like that. 😍
One of the highlights of my time as a big brother was taking my little to the Point Reyes Lighthouse to watch whales breaching. OK, he was more impressed by the number of stairs down to the lighthouse, but still...😊
Ocean trawling and animal agriculture are not around for the sake of the Big Oil industry; they’re around because people have an insatiable lust for killing animals to eat them.
Whether through gluttony or apathy, the majority of average people are responsible for wildlife decimation, not Big Oil.
People are responsible for what they choose to consume. Very few people choose the least impactful alternative to animal agriculture (biggest driver of land use change) and/or fishing industry (trawlers anyone?). Most people prefer not to inconvenience themselves.
Captain Paul Watson seized the opportunity to defend himself: “The fact is that Japan has threatened Denmark that they will cut a contract on windmills unless they get an extradition. Japan has also threatened France.”

Don't confuse lifestyle with the will to act.
American citizens all want to save the planet, but American consumers don't agree.
Trump and his henchmen are not citizens, just consumers in the true sense of the word. They consume the planet
Every single person who refuses to change their “lifestyle” in order to “save the planet”, is EXACTLY the same as Trump and his henchmen. They just want to blame someone else for the problem (Trump et al), rather than having to inconvenience themselves by changing their lifestyles.
How can you expect people to be motivated to make the efforts that are essential for the future of us all, when the ruling classes are screaming in their faces that they are going to do the opposite and destroy the planet?
"Destroy the world to save the American easy way of life..."
Those who actually care, take responsibility for their own choices and actions, they don’t try to lay it on someone else.
I expect people, who claim to “care”, to make lifestyle changes regardless of whether the “ruling classes” are screaming at them or not…they don’t really care otherwise.
A few years ago I kayaked and camped for about a week in Glacier Bay National Park. I still choke up when I remember the humpback whales breaching nearby. And how I'd wake up at night and lay there listening to them surfacing to breathe just yards from shore.
Mother Nature is lit.

Instead of religion being forced upon the young, maybe they should witness more beautiful videos of life on this planet. They may grow up to be better stewards of the earth than the current generation.
The current generation couldn’t give a good-god-damn. Though not nearly enough, younger generations are more likely to be vegan than current generations. Current generations aren’t stewards of earth, they’re a blight...
Yes. Let's stop polluting the oceans with plastic waste. Your plastic is not going to be recycled. None of it is, ever. That is a scam perpetrated by the plastics industry (aka the petroleum industry). Cut it out of your life as much as possible.

Beginning just has the tail, go to 29 seconds for the full breach!
