Image by @jim_abernethy // Learning to Scuba Dive and snorkel at a very early at definitely opened up an unimaginable world to me that I'm forever grateful for! This vibrantly colored Queen Angel is one of the many examples of how beautiful the creatures are! As I look closely at her, I'm humbled blessed and inspired to fight relentlessly to save all our planets wildlife and habitats! Unfortunately for me it is this same long period of time observing the underwater and terrestrial wildlife that brings insurmountable sadness as my early baseline made me watch entire large populations of sharks and other species disappear because of my species! Most of our species is driven to success, thinking that financial freedom is what success it! Very few think like I do! True success is happiness! For me this comes when your mind, your heart, your actions and your drive are all in alignment doing great things for all fellow earthlings, humans and all wildlife! Many of you are pleading with me for solutions on how to help our Amazon and our Planet! Here it is! Right now with the immense destruction of our amazon mostly for the Agricultural Animal industry, clearly the very best thing you can do is to lesson the amount of animals you eat, consider going vegetarian or better than that, become vegan like me! I'm very proudly Vegan as My health has never been better and I know it is exactly what the planet needs most! Agricultural Animal industries are the leading cause of many of the world's worst problems such as: 1 Globalwarming 2 Rainforest Destruction 3 Ocean & Land Dead Zones 4 Species Extinction 5 Water Depletion & Pollution 6 Habitat Loss 7 Western Civilization Decease 8 Eastern Civilization Starvation 9 Animal Exploitation, Suffering & Killing Please consider making food choice changes to help our planet and your health! @jim_abernethy @wildlifevoiceinc @sealegacy #TurningTheTide #vegan #veganfornature #loveanimals #worldissues #beautiful #habitatloss #rainforestdestruction #speciesextinction #waterdepletion #globalwarming #bethevoice #stopneedlessslaughter #cleanwater #stopthepoison #lovenature #Bethechangetheworldneeds (at Phil Foster Park at Blue Heron Bridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1i9ShCpYMt/?igshid=521jqycx75j3

#Repost @veganstreet with @get_repost ・・・ 55,000 square miles of Amazon rainforest was chopped down last year — the vast majority of the land used either to graze cattle or grow soybeans to feed cattle and other farmed animals. If you eat beef you are totally complicit in this.

Animal agriculture is the leading cause of species extinction, ocean dead zones, water pollution, and habitat destruction.

A few months back I traveled to Sarawak Malaysia to work on ‘Destruction, Witnessed, Logged & Going Viral’ a story on how NGO Global Witness exposes the economic networks behind conflict, corruption and environmental destruction for Wired UK.

The mission was to follow two Global Witness investigators as they continue to document the devastating destruction of the Sarawak rain forest at the hands of corrupt logging conglomerates who have little if no regard for the impact on the environment and the local people.

The trip had an enormous effect personally. Nothing like being on the ground to see how we are mistreating the planet and each other. Truly humbling, maddening, heart breaking and thought provoking.

Image by @jim_abernethy // A beautiful Polar Bear checks me out in the morning sun in north Canada! It saddens me greatly that these magnificent creatures will most likely be with the first groups of animals that become extinct directly because of global warming! We all must do as much as possible to prevent our planet temperature from continuing to rise! Our Agricultural animals are one of the biggest contributors to global warming as well as many of the other worst problems are planet is facing. Here's a list of the problems they cause! 1 Globalwarming/climate change 2 Rainforest Destruction 3 Water pollution and depletion 4 Species Extinction 5 Habitat loss 6 Western Civilization Illness 7 Ocean Dead Zones 8 Eastern civilization starvation 9 animal abuse, exploitation and killing Please consider going vegetarian or vegan or at least eating less animal meat! Together we can save our beautiful planet! @jim_abernethy @wildlifevoiceinc @sealegacy #TurningTheTide #speciesextinction #rainforestdestruction #vegetarian #veganfornature #climatechange #humanstarvation #vegan #globalwarmingisreal #waterpollution #oceandeadzones #habitatloss (at Hudson Bay, Manitoba, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B08VWKipqWz/?igshid=ifkjh9zjik54

Image by our founder @jim_abernethy // As our planet warms I truly hope your doing everything within your power to combat this climate crisis! Polar Bears are just one of many animals that rely on ice in order to catch their main food source...seals. I'm hoping and praying all these polar animals will adapt however it is unlikely! By far the easiest thing we can all do is to switch to a plant-based lifestyle. I did this 7 years ago and it is the best thing I've ever done for my health. With all the delicious plant-based meats it has never been easier!! This will not only improve your health but also help knock out the leading cause of ten of our planet's worst problems. See the second image for the list. Just add zoonotic viruses to the list! Let's all work hard at altering the course of our planet into a sustainable direction!

The Oceanic White Tip shark once ruled our planet as the most prolific animal over 100 lbs in weight according to Jacque Cousteau's scientists...Sadly today less than 1% remain here, in any ocean! The scenes from the very first shark film Blue Water White Death showed immense numbers of this iconic species! I was very fortunate to find and start the very first Oceanic White Tip shark sites many many years ago. This species is my conservation poster child and shows the tremendous need for our planet to stop needless slaughter of our planets wildlife! However the question is are we a smart enough species to overcome our greed for money, enough to realise that our only home is more important to save, than anything else! Presently we would rather feed, water and harvest 58 Billion agricultural animals a year, than use their feed to take care of our own species that roughly 13% of are starving. These agricultural animals are the leading cause of at least ten of our planets worst issues including Global Warming, Water Depletion and Pollution, Ocean Dead Zones, Rainforest Destruction, Species Extinction, Habitat Loss, Human Starvation, Human Health Issues and Animal Exploitation, Suffering and Killing. Some people are surprised to find out I'm proudly Vegan! I'm surprised more people don't switch to a plant based lifestyle for anyone of these reasons, espiacially health! What can you do to help our planet and its wildlife as our planets future is laying in the balance. What kind of planet do you want for your children and grandchildren? @jim_abernethy #proudlyvegan #shark #habitatloss #globalwarming #health #love #waterpollution #animalsuffering #rainforestdestruction #beautiful #bethechangetheworldneeds (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)

2048 is the year our scientist say we will run out of edible fish, if our present unsustainable food sources aren't altered! 1/6th of the planet that has no electricity will starve. We have enough food for the planet, if we were to convert to plant based diet, so we could feed people rather than the 56 billion agricultural animals we feed, water and kill yearly. Eating animals is the leading cause of these 10 issues! Global Warming, Water Depletion, Ocean Dead Zones, Rainforest Destruction, Species Extinction, Habitat Loss, Human Starvation in the East, Human Ill Health in the West, Animal Suffering, Abuse and Killing. I'm proudly Vegan for my health and Planet! Please consider eating more plants for the future of our planet and its wildlife! @jim_abernethy #6thextinction #globalwarming #animalabuse #oceandeadzones #overfishing #rainforestdestruction

The destruction of rainforest habitat has a couple of causes legal and illegal logging and leveling the rainforest to create palm oil plantations. Here’s a look at the problem from the BBC. . #PalmOil #BoycottPalmOil #RainforestDestruction #SaveTheRainforest #Indonesia #Malaysia https://www.instagram.com/p/Bps-FSWA1yj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14ipqez6jqqoo

A 3 part video from BBC Earth about a logging operation that was given the rights to log back in 2008 on land that is home to hundreds of orangutans. When serious fires destroyed a lot of land in a similar rainforest the Indonesian President ordered a halt to logging on lowland peat rainforests. Still there is evidence that the destruction will continue. Watch this report from the BBC.
