That is one wonderful infographic, Geege. Is the article good?

Yes, and Megafauna would make a great rock band name.

I wonder if whale poop could be artificially manufactured to keep these ecosystems alive. 

Ask our resident poop expert, HF!

Why artificially manufacture poop when it's easy to make the real thing?

Easier for some than others....

But anyway, whale poop has special oceanic properties (krill).  I guess land sewage would need special treatment before being pumped into our seas.  Is that where you were going?

Yes, that's where I was going. :)
