Tropical Storm KAREN and the GULF of MEXICO and the OIL

OK OK, so whatever happened to "Deepwater Rising"with all the Gulf footage we shot. Well we are still reeling over it, no pun intended...had to throw that in to honor good ole Mike deGruy's sense of humour! I have been i contact with many activists in the Gulf including Trisha Springstead, Riki Ott and others still fighting the good fight on our behalf. Recent events ie Tropical Storm Karen
may very well stir up the muck if it hit's the area hard, especially down at Grand Isle. Fact is the OIL IS STILL DOWN THERE in the deepwater so says Dr. Samantha Joye and other notable scientists. It is NOT going away anytime soon as many would have us believe. There are still severe health risks to those who live and partake near the areas that were bombarded by dispersants. Yes it's old news but weather and currents may very well make it todays news so standby....

Hopefully the information we gathered and the footage will be used in a more informative documentary based on the the Gulf of Mexico's history so again standby for that info too and we'll keep you updated...

Heading back to Kauai for more footage on Reefs

Cyanobacteria killing off Brown Rice Coaral
Well it's been a world wind Summer and now Autumn rolling in already! Heading back to meet with locals regarding the latest reef ravaging by hmmm let's see:

1. CYANOBACTERIA
2. ATRAZINE
3. RADIATION ??!!
4. GLOBAL WARMING / RISING SEAS
5. LAND MISUSE-RIVER MUD
6. NAVY's LOW FREQUENCY TISSUE DISINTEGRATING SONAR

The flow of radiation from Fukashima
Looking for a rainbow in here somewhere and will help with a video to address the current situation and the need for testing, ie FUNDING! Looking at a music benefit as well to raise funds for testing. The sooner we determine the CAUSE(s), see list above items 1-6, the sooner we can figure out a remediation plan for the reefs.

Latest I heard was the EPA received over $7.25 million from fines levied against an offender on Kauai who basically killed off a watershed a couple years ago. So why is the EPA so incredibly non-responsive to what's going on with the Hanalei river and it's overdose of Mud? Why aren't they
removing all the HAU bush along the banks of the river?? For detailed info definitely click here.

I'll let you know how the trip goes...
