Here's a good on from Larry Z.
________________________ To add a little more confusion to the marine water pollution arguments, the journal SCIENCE (29 Mar. 2002) reported on a study which tracked the biological sources of fecal bacterial in Virginia watersheds. Only 15% of E. coli bacteria had a human origin (i.e. septic runoff and boat discharge). The remainder came from other animal hosts, the largest contributor being waterfowl with 32.5% of the total. Similar studies are being carried out in California, Washington, and Oregon. Whats next? Diapers for geese? |

If every head on every boat were used by the entire population of your city- by-the-harbor, pumping overboard 24/7/365....it's be about 5% of what a North Carolina hog farm dumps into the Outer Banks. PU!! http://www.epi.state.nc.us/epi/hab/ The hog farm upriver cause this. Nothing is done....of course. Follow the MONEY trail, again............ |
