Maine had its
first deadly shark attack, killing a woman swimmer. A tooth left in the body was identified as a
great white. Great white sharks are
known to migrate as far north as the Bay of Fundy; seal populations off the coast
of Canada have been known to draw them in to feed. But, the cold waters off the coast of Maine
have kept sightings low.
Maine waters
are now warming and lobster men are worried about the lobster populations migrating
farther north. The warmer waters are
also attracting larger predators and other invasive species not common to our coastal
environment.
The
environment is changing. Global warming results
are visible.
Sensible
people would like to see the world move toward a greener energy policy.
However, the
elephant in the room is always ignored: Global warming and most other
environmental dangers are the results of human over population; which continues
at an unsustainable rate.

Don't worry, the human population will stabilize with the food availability. I think my grand kids have some serious problems in front of them.
