Another dead whale today …..

[2na]

Oh, I'm 85 and just waiting for the Gambler's tuna schedule to post. I worry about the big stuff--how many trips going to be blown out. See you on the water...[/QUOTE]


FINALLY...Something worth talking and/or worring about!!!

As long as you two save some space "NEXT TO THE DOOR" were all good. Totally agree with you, Chuck. Life is too short to worry about all the BS going on in the world today. As Capt. Bobby says " Were only here for a visit "

Is U.S. offshore wind development linked to any whale deaths?

No. At NOAA Fisheries, we work with our partners to analyze and understand the causes of death when we are able, following the science and data. At this point, there is no evidence to support speculation that noise resulting from wind development-related site characterization surveys could potentially cause mortality of whales

Oddly enough, there's no hand-wringing from your British source about the heavy toll that coal- and oil-powered electricity generation takes on wildlife, or what hi-rises, domestic cats, and window panes do to bird populations. We know what happens when offshore drilling platforms are exposed to saltwater, yet they're still being built and used. Oil spills are a clear environmental hazard, but I've yet to hear of a wind or solar spill that caused any problems.
I share your concern for our environment, my friend, and will keep a close eye on the related research.

Obviously squirrel you have a preconceived notion that global climate change can be influenced by human behavior. You probably listen the news that are on board with the current narrative. That’s fine, I or you will not be alive when all this BS scam comes to a head. But I know when I’m being ����ed. This is one of those times. End of story get ur head out of your ....

"At this point, there is no evidence..." =/= "...perfectly fine for marine mammals."

Just remember the government that says sonar is not responsible for the whale deaths is the same government who carried out radioactive testing and psychotic drug testing on its own citizens. DDT was acceptable. Cancer causing chemicals are allowed in many products because of economic feasibility. Pharmaceutical drugs over the years approved then found dangerous. Politicians who run the government do they tell the truth? I prefer not to trust the government.

I’ve read most of these, however there are reports and ideas from scientists that don’t get grants, if you aren’t on board with the narrative you don’t get the money. Here are a few that think all this rush to change isn’t going to work and the reasons why. Including humans aren’t causing the change...
