Topic: Again “mysterious” dolphin dying on Cabo Verde

Hey there guys,

On my daily surf pics tour on http://www.stehsegelrevue.com/pod/20071205161654/ I did found some disgusting not directly surf-related photos of a catastrophe going on on Cabo Verde. I’ll post some quotations.

<<Description: Some 300 dolphins have beached themselves on the island of Boa Vista since Sunday. More than 200 have died so far, with the population and authorities having managed to save only 61, which were returned to the sea. No explanation has yet been found for the appearance of so many dolphins - some of them with injuries, A Semana Online has learned - on the island’s beacSome 300 dolphins have beached themselves on the island of Boa Vista since Sunday. More than 200 have died so far, with the population and authorities having managed to save only 61, which were returned to the sea. No explanation has yet been found for the appearance of so many dolphins - some of them with injuries, A Semana Online has learned - on the island’s beaches, but the local delegate of the Ministry of the Environment and Agriculture believes that they may have become disoriented in the ocean and arrived at the island unintentionally. hes, but the local delegate of the Ministry of the Environment and Agriculture believes that they may have become disoriented in the ocean and arrived at the island unintentionally.

A geologist who is windsurfer and is living on Cabo Verde reports about that an that there it happened already several time in the last year, but it hasn’t n dolphins ever been that much beached.

True seems that the Nato is low-living around there with their subs using sonar to track what…new oil fields, of course!
Other statements speak of this as a result of natural process of changed magnetic fields. Haha, the Nato is speaking or what !?
Interesting enough that some guys visiting the site did some research in the internet, but could find NO information on the recent most dramatic catastrophe on ANY dolphins protecting organisation’s homepages.

Mostly interesting information also about the political situation on Cabo Verde.

>> ...I have lived in CV 4 about a year and what I can say is that the country is still very very primitive in all means (social, ecological, economical) but changing too fast into industrialization so that people cant adapt to it which leads into crime & drugs & prostitution as we have seen in many other cases of less developed countries. Sal is a good example for that. Other still more tranquil islands as Boavista are not that much affected. Sure this is not the fault of the caboverdians who are eager to learn and very friendly but it is the fault of 1.a lame burocratic system of law & order and a corrupt governement 2. respectless investors gaining billions!!! from flying in italian lowbudget tourists into newly built resorts. Most of the illegal african workers on the hotel buildingsites are living way off human conditions. Myself I was on a Quad Safari and the agencies are so responsible to only offer guided tours in order to prevent harming nature. The below discussion is not the problem of some quads but about a country which has it hard to cope with its destiny. THE WHOLE THING WITH NATO IS A DIFFERENT STORY ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO PROVE I AM SURE THEY HAVE SOME GUILT AND HOPE THEY GO TO HELL.

Referring to the quads there is the problem of fat assed tourists messing around in the dunes, destroying turtle’s nests.
The upcoming tourism on Cabo Verde gives the poor people  the illusion of a better life, so the families are bigger and more turtles are eaten, they might be slaughtered as their meet seems aphrodisiac to some  idiotic contemporains as well.
Dumped beaches, apartment complexes giving no space for new dunes…the usual shit ruining the planet. What the hell they’re thinking !?

Allez, I’ve been too bloody hellgium pussy to have a windsurf sesh at 7 degrees today, but I surfed you guys some info you maybe would have never heard of. I’ll try to get high on that…oh, wait, got something better, mhm!
Saludos,

Re: Again “mysterious” dolphin dying on Cabo Verde

Ok, volks I would like to keep you updated in the incident on Cabo Verde, still nobody knowing if and what happened to the 300 stranded dolphins on the. Two guys are about to involve OceanCare,  WDCS, Greenpeace  and WWF, received answer, but without witnesses,  press articles and photos they do not seem to be able to find out about the truth. A whole lot of ambassadors for political affairs there for sure, but no activist of the mentioned organisations who can at least talk to only witness who took the photo ?! A whole lot of spy satellites of numerous countries around, so why Greenpeace doesn’t have one to check on that place half an hour later the issue is online ?

By the way, the incident seems not to be caused by one of the loudest noises ever created by humans, the so called airguns that produce 220dc and which impulses track oil fields, but by low frequency active sonar (LFAS) producing 240 dc to control 80 % of the sea traffic. That’s the noise of moon rocket starting in 7m distance, and that loud that whales and dolphins are unable to follow their natural behaviour and die. Bravo, what a clever species we are!!!If there are secret Nato manoeuvres using that sonar around Cabo Verde, and if there have been incidents with much less dead dolphins in the past, they maybe came up with something loud as the let’s say big bang to keep up national security.

In Germany a left wing party had to ask to get informed about the use of LFAS within their army to receive unsatisfying answers. Appears not too democratic and serious to me, if a countries’ army that is among others financed by tax money, doesn’t give transparency over their environmentally unfriendly actions in times of global climate changes. So this bullshit bbnational security thought, that is just a very good example for the incapability of the goverments today and in the past, pushes the climate change beginning with the extinction of dolphins and whales ?! Shame!

So far,

Re: Again “mysterious” dolphin dying on Cabo Verde

Well then, last update: according to the information present in the internet the WDCS still investigates, but as there are still no more witnesses of the incident and as the NATO is meant to be not asked about the consequences of their manoeuvres for civil life we don’t know if we were traumatised by faked photos of a geologist suffering from a serious schizophrenia, or if a repetingly reported more massive dolphins dying supposed to be caused by military sonar signals, took again place on Cabo Verde.

But we do know that the first whale species will be extinct soon and maritime life forms, a healthy part of our food chain are endangered to not being able to stand human behaviour on the seas, with the in most nations implemented national security “thought”, ain’t got nothing to do with thinking, maybe resulting out of pure mass manipulation only, as a humongous accelerator of global environmental changes. Next to our exaggerated way of life, taking things as self-evident, that naturally aren’t.
According to what is reported on that particular page, the WDCS and OceanCare are those of the mentioned organisations devoted themselves to the sonar issue. I’d like to add this quote of the guy who contacted WDCS on the incident.

<<On the other hand, concerning the negative effects of the sonars, this is obviously generally considered a fact anyways (the situation in Boaviste just being anecdotal evidence), so it's just a matter of how this knowledge can be turned into (political) changes, which is what OceanCare (and others) are working on.

Sounds like revolution, I was thinking about donating some little money to them, but in the internet I stumbled over the following links

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid … ;plindex=0
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid … ;plindex=0

According to that it is maybe very reasonable to be careful about donations to welfare organisations. I never liked that many of them are doing advertising on the tube and other marketing stuff they do to gain members and their money, but they are also supposed to pay special fees on donations on issues that have nothing to do with caring the environment and should due to missing transparency not be supported. And some presidents of those organisations are political doubtful individuals and who but lovely old WWF offered the weakest answers, when the Cabo Verde happenings were reported to them!

Thus better thanb donating is truly personal engagement, yourself is taking and controlling actions, not the money in hands of people with maybe selfish and disrespecting attitudes.

So what I wish the planet for 2008 ? Me finding the time engaging myself in a trustful organisation dealing with environmental issue and the rest of the world becoming aware of their power as consumers. In the past poor governments did theirs to make the world what it is today, a bloody mess, but never the individual had so much influence on whether keeping on messing or beginning to change one’s consume habits to live healthier and happier in freedom and peace and give coming generation the suppositions to do so, too.
Wait a second, I forgot…LEGALFUCKIN’LIZE IT.

So thanks for the interest, guys,

Salut,

P.S. Still have to excuse on my hopefully still understandable English in the first post, the drag and drop function must have been crooking around and I didn't overread...
