    I live in Leiden. Besides the botanical gardens, which still exist today, it's also a major staging ground for public transport to the Keukenhof, which is basically one massive flower garden that's extremely popular with both national and international tourists. I'm still seeing my fair share of rare tulips to this day.

      @@shadiafifi54 The majority of the coral traded these days isn't wild collected, but grown in homes or stores. I don't imagine environmental factors would have much of an impact. That said, new strains of corals pretty much have to come from the ocean, so if collecting gets entirely shut down, we'll pretty much be stuck with what we've got. Certain fish ARE becoming hard to find since they're VERY difficult to breed in captivity. Hawaii shut down their marine fish exports, which drove the price of yellow tangs from like $30-40 to $300-400. There are some captive breeding programs going on though.

    Interesting, this must be why Calvinists base their view core theological belief on an abbreviation known as TULIP
    T - Total Depravity - We're all sinners who can't known God in our own capacity
    U - Unconditional Election - God chooses us despite ourselves
    L - Limited Atonement - God chooses particular people
    I - Irresistible Grace - When your chosen, you cannot resist salvation
    P - Preservation of the Saints - When your saved, you can never lose your salvation
