MIDCOAST MAINE
EARTH PROTECTORS
Galvanizing Midcoast Maine to protect the Earth, humanity, and all life.
Projects
We are actively supporting and participating in the following projects:
Resisting Nordic Aquafarms
The world's largest land-based aquafarm, if approved, would:
- Destroy a sensitive wetland ecosystem near the mouth of the Little River in Belfast
- Stir up toxic mercury deposits in the Bay
- Damage the local tourism economy
- Pump scads of nitrogen-rich effluent into the Bay
- Churn through hundreds of millions of gallons of pristine fresh water
- Pump out so much carbon dioxide from its gigantic diesel-generator smokestacks that it will make it impossible for Maine to reach its stated climate goals, which are already too little too late
For more info on this atrocity, see this slideshow, or download the PDF directly.
