On the topic that ate LJ today

No matter what you thought of the man personally (and I've seen plenty of people today both imply and state outright that "he got what he deserved" *twitch*), as [livejournal.com profile] dewhitton says: "He made people care about the animals, even the ugly ones. He saved patches of bush, even the useless stuff like rainforests and swamps. He got everyone thinking about the world we should be caring for." I think on the whole the world is a poorer place without him in it.
