Siit Bay and Antulay Area in danger

Siit Bay, Siation,

Siit Bay, Siation,

In 1999 Sillimann university the Siit Bay examined the naval lab and ascertained a doubtful load of the ecological system.
Since this time possibly the Mariculturen were not reduced, no, it a new farm was introduced, in addition and in addition the Bay was narrowed by a pier!
So this is reduced the water exchange.
This does not reach yet, now one plans before the Bay one more pearl mussel farm.
With it the whole ecosystem is in danger between the Siit Bay and the Tambobo Bay.
Impact of a Mariculture on ecosystem! From Wikipedia.com
With Mariculture on a rapid rise within the past couple decades it is important to address environmental issues that come along with this boom in the farming of marine life. Negative aspects of all forms of mariculture, regardless of physical structure or economic motivation, affect biodiversity. Mariculture can degrade habitat, disrupt trophic systems, deplete natural seedstock, transmit diseases and reduce genetic variability. These shifts in the natural habitats of the oceans affect the ecosystem as a whole. Most advocates of Mariculture believe that the ocean can be broken up into sections, one not affecting the other. However, this is not the case when considering the negative effects Mariculture has on the food chain and oceanic environment. For example, culture systems in open waters discharge their untreated wastes of feces or uneaten food directly into the water and often at levels higher than the environment can absorb. In the sheltered bays of Mariculture development the overloading of carbon-based nitrogen and phosphorous compounds may lead to blooms of phytoplankton, whose subsequent degradation can drastically reduce oxygen levels. If the algae are toxic, fish are killed and shellfish contaminated. [3] [4] [6]

the new turtels

After a long time of 59 days the turtel children came into the world, in this time 2 new nests were laid.
Unfortunately, your nest area is separated from wild colonists with fences and with it egg filing is complicated or is made impossible.

Open questions

Why leave we all our sewage unfiltered in the sea?
Why let we our arms eat the snails if we, nevertheless, know itself in a food step poison materials around 10 powers condense?
Why let we wonderful coral sceneries by pisciculture washbasin sink into the mud?
Why do we admit this?
