The Tortoise And The Solar Plant: A Mojave Story

EXCERPT" ... 'This is one that was walking down the middle of the road when it was spotted by one of the monitors,' Woodman says. 'Luckily, we've got a radio transmitter on it now.'

He's looking at an adult female tortoise; she's about the size of a dinner plate, and the transmitter is glued to her shell. It almost looks like a stray twig.

The tortoises can't stay where construction crews might harm them, so the biologists are moving them to pens to ride out the desert winter. In the spring, they'll try relocating them to the wild.

Vaughn spots a tortoise with a crushed shell that is trying to move its legs, but they barely wriggle. It's the type of injury tortoises get when an all-terrain vehicle or motorcycle accidentally rides over them. (SOURCE, Oct 30, 2010) ... "

One more example of why describing environmentalists as a "movement" is so ironic. There is no Movement, only resistance to Movement, i.e. one roadblock after another. They Block all advancements while dithering and whining about "potential problems" while real, certain and present problems crush the environment. Environmental Impact statements (aka full employment for enviro-consultants), costing millions and eating up years that could both be better spent DOING SOMETHING have served only to limit and restrict innovations, advancements and improvements.

The tortoises will be fine and continue to adapt and survive, as they have for millions of years, where they are located or re-located. Enviros should learn that Nature & Earth cares little about their whiny concerns and self-aggrandizing pronouncements about what is "best" for the world.

I'm so happy to have green energy to save the environment! Well, at least we can take comfort in the fact that we won't waste rooftop space and blight our urban ecosystem with nasty solar panels there. Whew. And really, I'd much rather spend money moving tortoises around than spend it on energy. And thank god their not drilling for gas out there! Can you imagine the impact of a road to a gas well?

“Tortoises don't really like that kind of attention, and sometimes, they let the scientists know. ‘They will pee,’ Woodman says. ‘And they can pee copiously if they have a full bladder.’ He's talking from personal experience: ‘It does have an odor. It's a musky scent.’"

I love their style!

Can we borrow these SMART tortoises please? Since we have a dysfunctional Congress, I thought these tortoises could use the same technique to show how ANGRY American people are about what is happening on Capitol Hill.
