Earthrehab’s Weblog

We hear a lot about Energy Independence these days and Clean Energy Solutions,

EarthRehab’s Founder expresses his views on the subject at hand. 

I do not want to pay to be on a Grid system for Electricity any more.

I believe that with the proper stimulus package to help homeowners afford Wind and Solar technologies they would use to “get off the grid“, most citizens would be interested provided if they could sell the unused energies back to “the Grid”.

This type of energy system is a win-win for all. Reduce the need for Power Plants and the CO2 and Pollution that Power Plants create. I do not believe that Wind and Solar farms are a proper habitat for Nature or Agriculture Areas much less for un-developed properties. 

If you own a 2-Acre lot you should be encouraged to own or lease 1 Wind Power station and a Solar Electricity Station for your residence that would reduce your impact on the Grid, or remove you from it entirely

If you have less property than 2 Acres you should be encouraged to own or lease a Solar Power Unit that would reduce your impact on the Grid, or remove you from it entirely.

Next would be the Transportation issue:

Technology should be created so that Bio Mass and Solar Power could be utilized in an Electric Fuel Cell vehicle so that you would never have to fuel your vehicle again and the Excess Power could be transferred to your Energy Independent Residence for distribution, possibly sold back to the Grid. 

The Local Utilities (FPL) and the Federal Government should maintain inspections and insurance for all Power Equipment in case a Natural Disaster (Hurricanes and such), or the Greed factor should occur.

I posted a lot this past April and May 2008 regarding Florida’s Water Pollution issue on GreenReality; the politics of Green.

The politics of Green is EarthRehab’s political web-site, feel free to express your concerns.

Topic’s like The Clean Water Act, Pollution Pipes just off the coast, Water Quality Monitoring, TMDL, Pollution Reporting, and the Endangered Species Act vs. Beach Erosion and Renourishment.

Green Living Expo- April 11, 12, 13

EarthRehab Founder William Djubin was in attendance for the Green Living Expo in Los Angeles.

This was an International Year of the Reef 2008 collaboration with Reef Check, to promote Nature Research.

Over 300 people signed the Declaration of Reef Rights for Mary Luna the NGO Coordinator for IYOR 2008.

Reef Check Founder & President Gregor Hodgson was on site Saturday to meet with William at the Expo and talk about the Future of our Oceans. Reef Check is seriously contemplating an office in Florida soon. Thank you Gregor, we need all the help we can get.

Green License Plates were seen on many cars in LA including the Electric Car at the Expo.

EarthRehab brought to LA several brochures from various Nature Research Foundations, over 1500 total were passed out to guests.

Nature Conservancy & Nature Conservancy Santa Cruz Islands- saving a place for you.

Ocean Conservancy Channel Islands- protects this resource.

Audubon Martin County- Bird counts and benefits of habitat research, we did discuss the Richardson’s Bay situation.

Loggerhead Marine Life Center- Research on Migration Patterns and WQMS with rehabilitation for Turtles.

Busch Wildlife Sanctuary- a place many wild animals call home due to development.

Perry Institute for Marine Science- Ocean Acidification experts and Coral Reef Ecologists.

Southeast Florida Coral Reef Initiative-the NOAA guardians of our Ocean Ecosystem from North Palm Beach to the Florida Keys.

After the Expo EarthRehab decided to draft a petition, the Enforce the Federal Clean Water Act and posted it on Care2. It is available for download just ask.

FAU Environment Awareness Day- April 17

EarthRehab Founder William had a chance to meet with fellow Environmental Activists at the FAU Campus in Jupiter. A few who attended were ERM, FAU Environment Club with President Sarah Fannin, and EarthFirst. An Electric Car received a Green License Plate for technology.

We discussed the future of our Oceans and Pollution; then urged support for the Enforce the Federal Clean Water Act petition. 38 signatures total from the 40 people we surveyed.

Kite Beach to Corners Cleanup- April 19

The Great American Cleanup for EarthDay on Jupiter Beach.

Jupiter Middle School ‘treehuggers’ hosted this event with EarthRehab and Ocean Minded Sandals. We encouraged volunteers to sign our petition for Clean Water. Nearly 100 volunteers helped remove pollution from this now narrow stretch of Beach, including Dr. John Marr the Executive Director for Perry Institute for Marine Science and his Family.

Everyone received a Green License Plate, and Hat with some an EarthDay T-shirt or Ocean Minded Sandals.

At the peak of the activity the American Flag jumper parachuted onto a Runway made from Green License Plates jumping at 3500 feet from Capt. Jack Reisel’s Star Spangled Stearman, A vintage Biplane.

Lastly was the arrival of Jupiter’s Famous Vinny’s Pizza.

  You cannot get any better than Hot Pizza served right on the beach.

the politics of Green
California and the EPA have had success with enforcing the Clean Water Act.
We must unite to follow their leadership.
Urge your local legislature to enforce the Clean Water Act today.
TMDL and WQMS must be understood yesterday.

Right in My Backyard

Water Restrictions continue to plague my neighborhood; and one thing has got me confused.

I have been studying TMDL and WQMS for some time.

I own a home in North Palm Beach County and I have been told that I will face a higher water bill for water that I do not consume. Basically the cost is to water down the pollution and sewage that development and bad decisions have created. 

Lets face the facts:

We are being surcharged for mistakes.

We are being sanctioned for future profits from agriculture for energy and development.

We owe it to Florida to expose these facts, and understand the consequences. 

When politicians celebrate Any Energy Decision without understanding the consequence I could get sick, instantly.

When our Ocean Eco-systems cease to operate with efficiency we will all pay a fatal price. 

Protect the Ocean Eco-systems and stop un-necessary polluting today.
