I agree with most of this and yes, Wilkinson needs the boot. But Conservatives are unelectable. An oil tanker stuffed westcoast and a collapsing climate is not helping salmon nor BC fishermen.
If we went carbon neutral tomorrow, The climate would not even start to feel the effects of the reduced carbon output for 40 to 50 years. China has stated they will reduce their carbon output but not make huge changes till 2030. Climate change is going to affect to effect our salmon for the next 80 years +
Yes we need to do something about it but the fact is we won't be alive to see the planet cool. In fact the planet is never going to cool back to the way it was we are only aiming to stablize it at some higher tempture then it is now. The is the sad reality of climate change. http://theconversation.com/if-we-st...-right-now-would-we-stop-climate-change-78882
The Blob is only going to get worse in our lifetime. That is what climate science is telling us.
Only addressing problems that we will be alive to see is what got the planet to where it is. That is the sad reality.
The irony to this is that Patagonia's true goal is inline with what we all want. They want wild fish to sustain themselves. That is what we all should want.
Ideal world is that we have a managed wild fishery that doesn't need enhancement.
So what is the green solution, Close down all fishing until the planet stabilized in 100 years? After all with the increasing global temperatures and the blob reducing salmon survival the orcas will need all the salmon they can get to increase their population. To allow allow an ever increasing FSC take and allow indigenous fisheries only??
vote patagonia right dradons?
You are totally right I guess I was just referring to put and take TroutNot to change the subject but the fresh water management is a thread on its own and has been totally mis managed at least with steelhead for 30 years...
Hey Scott why don’t you run as a independent you would have my vote for sure!The way I see it, a vote for NDP or Greens will likely only help the Liberals back into power.
Their agenda with the ENGO's will carry on and we won't be fishing.
