Stop Ravaging the Coast

Regarding Mr. (Sam) Blakeslee and his ideas from the Cal Poly think tank — think again!
I am in the mind of saying, “No to wave energy.” I have constant, continuous reminders of the bill put forth by Blakeslee to do seismic testing — sonar blasting.
We are paying a huge price for experiments that sacrifice sea life. The end product of years of this testing has resulted in the idea that the sacrifice is necessary, as well as benefits us with information.
I believe we deserve all the pertinent facts and observations detailed in reports on results of seismic testing.
The citizens paying for these experiments deserve transparency. I think that means honesty. However clever the wording, mapping has become the cover for sonar blasting.
I say think again about wavelength energy and the idea that you can sonar the sea critters away. The need to heal and renew efforts to protect our shores is now.
The folks in Morro Bay are already saying “No” to more of the same. Well they have learned being a “target zone” is doing harm to the sea, and it’s not good for humans either.
The effect on my beautiful town of Cayucos, endless targeting, years of it, and are we better off? I say, “No” and prove to me there’s been transparency.
The wording of “National Wave Energy Test Facility,” completing with other states to host the national facility. I want genius to overcome stupidity, however, it’s always about the money.
I say “No” do not volunteer to remain a target zone for Mr. Blakeslee’s ideas of sonar blasting. Please say “No” to this effort to continue to ravage our coasts and the animals that live within it. Thank You,

Marcia Kimbrell, Cayucos
