I too have spent MANY a day enjoying those areas from my years down there, what would you rather me say?
The truth, that this will have a long term detrimental impact on the area
Quick clean it up, would be done by now...but by what magic?
What are you on about?
What will it achieve to clean up an effectively inert substance laying over dead substrate and lots of healthy substrate higher up on the beach??
Never thought of the Cape rocks, inter tdal beach surf zone and surrounds as dead sub strata
I do wonder who would have raised an eyebrow at this stage if the oil was clear?
Clear, black, green, does the colour lessen the impact?
The time to deal with it was before the oil reached the shore if to make any measurable difference in outcome.
Correct
I have read the EPA has bent to election campaign needs and growing public hysteria and is now playing the game they play so well.
Im not interested in politics, or your political persuasion, however subtle you pronounce it. If you have a beef with Labour, take it up at the polling booth, dont use damage to my local spot as your soap box please
Seriously if a person did give a non biased crap about the environment they would consider everything I have said as the glass is half full, seriously again - it says lot's about the true state of reasoning behind what drives many peoples opinion.
Like I said, lets move it to your local, I will tell you how good it will all be, and you can respond as I have. I will then await your glass half full opinion with anticipation
cheers fnq
As per red text above, I was going to type in clear, but that would lessen the perceived impact.
