Oysters: A complicated economy and ecology

Oysters: A complicated Economy and ecology There were two bills before the state Legislature in Hartford that had big and small operators in opposite camps. The bills arrived at a time when the health of the Sound-- and potentially, its oysters -- remain under assault on a number of fronts, according to the environmental advocacy group Save the Sound: Global warming is gradually raising the temperature of the water. Low oxygen or hypoxia episodes, which can cause mass die-offs, will likely continue until sewage treatment plants install nitrogen-removing equipment. The remaining salt-water marshes, a buffer between the land and ocean environments, are under attack from rising sea levels. Back on board the oyster boat Grace P. Lowndes, its dredges pick up the occasional horseshoe crab, fluke and whiskey bottle. About 15 percent of the catch will soon find its way to restaurants; the rest is mostly shells and undersized oysters that will be tossed back on the beds to mature. Oysters take three or more years to get to market size, but their growth can be slowed by sending them out to deeper, colder waters. "Since oystermen farm their own grounds, it's an industry that's more like farming rather than fishing," said Ron Goldberg of the Northeast Fisheries Science Center in Milford, which has been working out oyster reproduction techniques since the 1930s. "[...] since they're filter feeders, they're really quite effective at cleaning th ...

Analysis: Iran economy far from collapse as sanctions tighten| Reuters

You have heard alot of nonsense that the sanctions on Iran are tough. What they did to Mossadegh was unlawful and tough. For him they completely shut off all Irans exports and imports. The USA and UK however in practice love extremism for Iran, its why with France and Germany they brought the IRI to power and are keeping them despite the people being ready to overthrow them. Since the USA/UK really want to keep the IRI, and Obama represents "no change at all", my advice to them is continue as you are doing, denying the democratic opposition and making their job near impossible. The outcome, analysts say, is that Iran may avoid an external payments crisis even if oil exports fall further. Its foreign reserves are estimated by private economists to have dropped to around $70-80 billion from just above $100 billion at the end of 2011; the fall may slow and eventually halt as the currency depreciation and other emergency policies take hold. Meanwhile, government subsidies and handouts are expected to continue softening the impact of inflation on Iran's poorer families by keeping staple foods such as bread, rice, sugar and edible oil affordable for them. Parliament agreed last month to allocate a further $2 billion to support low-income families. ...

“I’ve grown up in the Himalayas — there’s no cash Economy there. People are wealthy at zero dollars a day. The point is that you need to have a clean stream. If your forest is intact and your stream is flowing and your knowledge is with you, and you can grow your food and you recognize the herbs that can cure you and you have mutuality of labor exchange, so that you come and work on my farm, and I come and work at your farm, why on earth would you need either dollars or rupees? On the other hand, if the water is commodified, if our seeds are commodified, if our medicine is monopolized, if there are no jobs. If the entire system is meant to merely be a source of profits for a handful of corporations, actually, you just have do your arithmetic, life becomes too expensive to buy. You can’t buy life. And now that they are trying to commoditize the very basis of life and own it and sell it back to us, basically the consequence is disposable people. Because for most people, then, life becomes unaffordable in any case, a life of that kind, even for those those who can afford it, is not life anymore.” - Vandana Shiva (via la-hija-del-quinto-sol ) ...
