In Support Of IWT Victims

I believe that provincial Liberal government leaders overstepped their role in supporting the wind turbine industry through the Green Energy Act. When the health impacts of industrial wind turbines started to become evident, they went on the offensive against the victims. Despite increasing indications of the medical ramifications of the barometric pulses generated by industrial wind turbines, Liberal government leaders continued their subsidy and support of the industry.

Now that the medical impacts are being examined in detail, it becomes evident that operating industrial wind turbines’ barometric pulses produce a disruption of normal adrenaline and cortisol hormones levels in the brains of victims. As a result, their normal psychological state becomes initially imbalanced, progressively distressed and eventually “terrorized“.

Regardless of these medical revelations, Liberal government leaders and their supporters continue to deny the impacts and to ridicule the victims. Ironically, if a foreign power were funding and directing  the contamination of our water supply with mind-altering chemicals, we would doubtlessly be endeavouring to neutralize such terrorism. I believe that if continued, the government’s support of its current industrial wind turbine policies will effectively bring it into a similar role of supporting and directing “terrorism“.

Now that the medical impacts have become clear, the only responsible action that the provincial government can pursue is to neutralize and reverse the “terrorism”. To do anything less is to become knowingly and openly complicit in it.

Arboretum Needs Volunteers For Vine Control Program

The issue of damage to town park trees by run-away vine growth continues. The Aurora Community Arboretum (www.auroraarboretum.ca)  is a valuable nature and environmental resource. It is encouraging like-minded folk to volunteer by contacting membersandvolunteers@auroraarboretum.ca.

They are hoping that a group of volunteers will help give extra resources so they can form a small team next year to hunt out and remove the vines as well as other invasive plants.

Besides the Wild Cucumber vines, Wild Grape vines (such as this example below) are also choking and killing many trees in town parks …

It still bears the ‘2009’ designation because it has to be linked with the dated “Photo Gallery” link on the official team website at … http://auroratigers.pointstreaksites.com/view/auroratigers . I’ve now added the link to my Aurora Tigers Photo Gallery to this blog’s main upper menu.

Wild Cucumber Vines

Last year I was concerned over the impact that Wild Cucumber vines were having on shrubs and trees in the creek valley of the Aurora Arboretum. I took photos, compiled a 3-page ‘report’ and sent it to Jim Tree of the town staff and to John Clement of the Arboretum. Here’s one of the shots I included in that report. Its location is along the east side of the creek, due east of the Recreation Complex …

A copy of that report can be downloaded at the following link .. http://www.algonquinadventures.com/bbauroraPhotoGalleryAnnex/WildCucumberVines.pdf

Here’s another shot from that report ..

While I received emails back, saying they would be discussing it with each other and would get back to me, I never did hear from them again. That was last year.

This year, the weed appears to have spread further down stream and is impacting even more trees and shrubs. Following are some more pictures I took yesterday …

I sure hope the Parks Department and Arboretum don’t let this vine destroy too many trees and shrubs!
