Puffin decline

I'm afraid the puffin decline has been expected in some quarters, and if the scientists concentrated on the real reason for the decline (overfishing) instead of the 'red herring' of climate change they might finally be able to start implementing a strategy to combat this disaster for the UK's seabirds.

Read 'The North Sea Sandeel Fishery - An Industry of Destruction' the third article featured here - http://www.blueplanetsociety.org/about14.html
