Where have all the shrimp gone?
Look and listen:
You can look at the information provided many ways. Remember our great emblem the Bald Eagle was threatened due to DDT causing the egg shells to be thin and so the birds became very scarce? It took some 20 years for the to make a comeback? Now, finally it is not unusual to see Bald Eagles at least a couple of times a year for the average river-goer. Do we have 20 years to get over being poisoned? Listen to the above video for the explanation of this remark?
If you have a bad air haze –isn’t that another word for toxic — is hanging over some coastal cities along the gulf, shouldn’t the EPA call a spade a spade. Now, what is to prevent that bad air from entering into plants, especially our vegetables that we have come to know and love? Yes, yes, I know plants take in CO 2 and give off O 2. But don’t be fooled. Chemicals can come and go with both the carbon dioxide as well as the oxygen.
Lastly, there is a simple –or, rather, complex– problem of the fish. Ocean fish and seafood is supposed to be relatively safe. How about fish that are now bumping into the sides of boats? Isn’t that fish poisoning in reverse?
Wake up folks. If not enough is being done, then demand it be done or make your elected officials responsible. Elections are coming in the fall.
