    About the Asian Carp, I think any imported species should be sterilized first. Although they farmers would have had to buy more carp, I think that it's safer environmentally. I guess we should bring over some Asian shark or something and sterilize them......


    About the Japan/Austrailia thing, I think that it is a "loophole". I highly doubt that the whales are really being used for "scientific purposes". More likely, it's for food and using their fats/oils for human products....
