I know it's easy to ignore the suffering of a fish, but a one gallon tank is simply not a healthy environment for one to live in. Fish need room. Every time I see someone with a Beta in a bowl or tiny tank, I cringe.
You don't want a bigger tank, and that's fine, but just accept that an environment that small simply isn't suitable for fish. Hell, use it for sea monkeys.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
