Nature is not a Whore!!!

We have incredible fishing grounds on our East Coast!!! Why destroy a renewable sustainable Resource??? Molesting these grounds by dumping massive amounts of construction materials on them is insane!!! Keep in mind the many rules the EPA has against ocean dumping!!! Not to mention the likely hood of them turning into a Dumping Ground after they become useless… Out of sight out of mind!!!

Then there’s the fact that these Turdbines use a lot of OIL in their drive system… That’s right they can cause an Oil Spill and/or a fire!!! Remember if the wind doesn’t blow they don’t go!!!

Man made Reefs isn’t that sweet… The Block Island Wind Farm makes this very point… Interesting of all the species that they spout off about it only mentions Cancer Paragurus generically that means brown crab an edible Crab… The picture looks like a cooked Crab… They don’t mention the European Green Crab??? Yet they deal with this surging scourge of the Sea on Block Island itself…

The Big Green Deal doesn’t even see this coming the Green Apocalypse… Look into these little rascals and how successful they have been and the many many efforts that have been taken to subjugate this INVASIVE SPECIES!!! Can you guess where they originated and how they got here??? You know where the Wind Turbines will becoming from and how they’ll get here… Google them everyone has a story… “European Green Crabs”

What wonderful habitat the Turbine bases will make for the Green Crabs ocean Locust!!! To top it off they’ll be transporting these insatiable critters with the Turbine parts on an in the ship ballast tanks… One 2” to 3” female is capable of producing a couple hundred thousand Eggs… We’re talking Nano here… Now you may say the Turbines will be miles away from the Shore and the fertile inshore Shellfish industry… Tides and/or a good Easterly will help spread the Scourge!!! A major case of the Crabs I’d predict!

We can’t forget about the Whales… The European Wind Farms do not see a significant Whale migration… What aren’t they saying???

Block Island’s Wind Farm only produces around 30-40 KV… The Larger Wind Farms will run at several hundred thousands to one million Volts producing significant amounts of electro-magnetic fields, cancer causing levels!!!

When you look at the reliability and the intermittent power supplied with Wind Turbines… Tesla Solar Panels with it’s chargeable Power Cells are a far better choice… MicroPower Plants will bring true Electric Independence!!!

Common sense???

KEEP IT IN AMERICA!!! I have a lot more confidence in Elon Musk and TESLA… SAVE OUR OCEANS!!!

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
