Years ago I worked with a guy who watched a lot of Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro etc and one day we were chatting and I was like "my eating schedule is weird, I usually don't eat lunch but eat a huge dinner at like 8pm" And he said "ah, the warrior's diet".

Bottom trawling is so destructive, especially in deep-sea benthic habitats. Some sites still show scars in the sediment after decades. Instant obliteration of the benthos, including 4000 year old deep-sea corals Beautiful move by Sweden. Good change is possible ❤️

Sweden bans bottom trawling in all its waters, in a move that could allow the seabed to heal & wildlife to replenish. Conservationists say bottom trawling tears up the seafloor habitat fish need to live & breed - destroying generations of ocean life.
