Judging from your post, you will probably think the earth is in perfect shape, but the science (I repeat - science) is out there for you explore the facts. Dolphin, whales and other marine life are critical beings in a what is a very complicated ecosystem. The removal of top predators such as these can usher in great imbalance and problems in our delicate ecosystem. Beyond the preservation of the planet, it would be nice if people cared that these great marine mammals are going extinct. It would be nice if people cared about other life (beyond their own). Don't worry about winning some so-called hypothetical war with sonar...There are considerably stronger, more intelligent, more effective ways to stop war. If we're going to live on this planet much longer, we have to start thinking less about war games, and more about life.

Yeah, sonar testing is killing dolphins and whales, but it's not like they're not helping us. Dolphins have provided us with this excellent way of locating mines and other hazards underneath the oceans. I wish there was some way these dolphin deaths could be avoided, but please don't act like sonar doesn't help us humans. We probably will be able to win wars with this kind of unique and advanced technology. Well, ok. Yeah, sonar testing is killing dolphins and whales, but it’s not like they’re not helping us.

I felt really compelled to check out this website to see if there is anything I could do to help protect these beautiful and intelligent creatures from the cruelty of man.

Dolphins are very social creatures, and gentle; they're always helping humans. I hope that the military realizes the harm they're causing by exploiting the dolphins, and stop misusing the gifts and intelligence of these beautiful animals. This article is informative.
