Now? They be like: .Sure, Sears Island is the estuarine center point of the entire Maine coast. It's where upper bay and lower river commingle. Where downeast and midcoast waters wash their respective sides of this single island. And where their respective - and actually biologically slightly different- wildlife, fishes shellfishes and fowl share lodging.
Yes, Sears Island and the estuary it anchors are not replaceable. That 's why the CLF spent decades fending off would be developers form the island
But Investors are having a Big Sad over having to clean up an existing port site to drag Maine offshore wind turbines offshore.
What's to be done? Easy queasy: CLF 2.0 cries "Climate Change!" Sudden silence. Then "Sacrifice! We must sacrifice everything we love, to defeat this menace. We ARE the people. [It says so - in our promo material!] "
Their new owners grin...
King has been a waste of space as US Senator. He should have been jailed when, as Maine governor, he violated the law and pressured US EPA into firing their their staffers for defending natural Sears Island. We got that overturned. EPA's Region 1 chief took the fall for Angus and was hired by former environmental group Conservation Law Foundation as consolation. CLF is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Big Money, tamely calling for the ravaging of Sears Island - after vigorously defending it for decades!
