My last few weeks in the Phils have been wet and windy. Summer is over before it even began, and the Habagat has started early. Typhoons are swarming all over Asia, at a time of year which is usually calm and sunny for the Philippines.
Somewhere, Al Gore is laughing a great big ‘I told you so’ laugh.

Becks is a marine ecology PhD student, living in Queensland (Australia), Dumaguete (Philippines) and London (UK). Marinegirl is her online alter-ego. She dreamt her up as as super-gorgeous superhero saving the underwater world (if you've seen Captain Planet, you get the idea). She is not, and never will be, in the marines.
