In new study recently published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, scientists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in California recently reported that:
"In March 2012, less than one percent of the seafloor beneath Station M was covered in dead sea salps," writes Carrie Arnold for National Geographic. "By July 1, more than 98 percent of it was covered in the decomposing organisms. ... The major increase in activity of deep-sea life in 2011 and 2012 weren't limit to Station M, though: Other ocean-research stations reported similar data."
They go on:
"Forget looking at global warming as the culprit," writes National Geographic commenter "Grammy," pointing out the lunacy of Arnold's implication that the now-debunked global warming myth was the sudden cause of a 9,700 percent increase in dead sea life.
Backing her up, another National Geographic commenter jokingly stated that somehow "the earth took such a huge hit in a four-month timeframe of a meltdown via global warming and we as a people didn't recognize this while [it was] happening; while coincidentally during that same time frame the event at Fukushima took place."
Radiation from the Fukushima Nuclear Reactor meltdown has reached the coast of California. The fish and seafood swimming along the California coast line are dying from radiation poisoning. Will the US Food and Drug Administration protect Greensboro and the rest of the nation from the dangers of eating fish and seafood exposed to hazardous levels of radiation? Your guess is as good as mine.
But you can count on this: the cost of fish and seafood grown on inland farms in places like North Carolina is about to skyrocket and if I were running any city that had a contract to buy 53% of the water from the Randelman Dam (water we don't need) and was sitting on 500 acres of never before used city owned property next door to a landfill in the most impoverished neighborhood in town I'd say screw concert halls, we're going fishing, Aquaponics style. And the cool thing is that it could actually return a profit for the City while putting people to work producing locally grown, safe organic fish and vegetables.
And just so you know, some of the world's foremost leaders in Aquaponics are employed by the State of North Carolina.
Oh, and if I owned a seafood restaurant, I'd be thinking about unloading it ASAP.
