Where have all the flowers gone

Long time ago?  (Pete Seeger)

14 or 15 Dead whales now have washed up on the Jersey coast since December. The most recent one was Monday morning in Manasquan. The best explanation is the ships that are conducting surveys of the Ocean floor for an upcoming wind turbine project. Apparently these ships are shooting sound waves into the Ocean floor to determine depth of the sand base. These sound waves are jamming and disorienting the Whales ability to hear. The whales are then unable to avoid ships in the area. 

I ask two questions ?

Where is Green Peace and the Millions of other environmental /animal rights groups? Are they consciously sacrificing whales for what they deem as the greater good of wind powered energy?

How differently would the media be covering this story if the wind mills were a President Trump initiative? 

On Feb 3rd 50 train cars derailed near Palestine Ohio. 11 of these cars were carrying highly toxic/cancer causing chemicals. ( including highly toxic vinyl chloride and hydrogen chloride )                    Officials evacuated 100 people that lived in the immediate area on Feb 6th and then conducted a "controlled" release of those chemicals into the atmosphere to avoid a catastrophic explosion. On Feb 11 residents were allowed to return to their homes. Over the weekend local farmers reported that chickens and Foxes were dropping Dead and residents were returning home to find dead fish in the fish tanks. Dead animals have been reported well outside the original containment site. Mayor Pete Buttplug and the white house administration has been invisible on this issue.

I ask two familiar questions.

Where are the environmentalists on this, where are the demonstrations, protests and marches? 

How differently would the media be covering this story if there was a Republican POTUS and Transportation Secretary?

Oh, when will you ever learn?
