Scouts clean up Bow Lake Community Club, beaches as community service project
Thursday, April 24, 2014
STRAFFORD — The Bow Lake Community Club, dam and town beach are ready for summer thanks to Cub Scout Pack 23 and Boy Scout Troop 23 of Strafford. Saturday morning, while the water was still low, the team effort of about 40 boys, 25 adults and siblings, raked up the debris, leaves and pine needles out of the lake, off the lawn and beach. They trimmed back the brush and also cleaned up the area surrounding the Grange Hall.
"When the boys come back during the summer, they can see the benefits of their community service. They may not be thinking that I did community service, but they may say, 'I raked this and look how clean it is,' " said Paul Eaton, Charter Organization Representative of Bow Lake Community Center (Grange Hall). "It serves a dual purpose. It helps the community, but it also teaches them about community service. It's a great project."
The Cub Scouts Pack 23, Boys Scouts Troop 23, and the Bow Lake Community Club plan to make this an annual event.

Obama: US military not getting involved in UkraineWASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is ruling out use of the U.S. military in the West's dispute with Russia over Ukraine.Obama says nobody wants to "trigger an actual war with Russia" because that would serve no one's interests. He said the U.S. and its allies will continue to turn up the pressure on Russia in hopes of reaching a diplomatic solution to the crisis.Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula this week after residents there voted overwhelmingly to join Russia. The move came despite warnings by the West to Russian President Vladimir Putin that annexation violated international law and would be ignored by the world.Obama says Putin acted out of weakness, not strength.Obama commented Wednesday during interviews with TV stations NBC 7 in San Diego and KSKD in St. Louis.

text: Emma Esperon LA 101H Professor O'Hara April 16, 2010 Entering the Death Zone Dead. Empty. Void. These are some of the words used to describe sections of the ocean that had previously been teeming with life. But that was before it was touched by humans, before shipping lanes and pollution tainted the ocean, before the imbalance. The Ocean was once kept in equilibrium by the food chain: the plankton on the water's surface created biological material, which sank to the bottom of the ocean enriching the water with oxygen. Then, keeping the balance, the bottom feeding bacteria ate the biological material and produced carbon dioxide, in a process called bacterial respiration. This cycle happens all over the globe facilitating plants and animals to breath underwater. However, when runoff taints the ocean, the plankton to bacteria ratio is altered, depleting the oxygen in the water and killing off all life. Since the ocean is a huge flowing mass it seems like it would be difficult to section off areas of water and designate them "dead." Yet the sectors are present, always bordering the shorelines and port cities where water stills and pollution gathers, devastating the local marine environment. A main factor that creates dead zones is runoff water. This pollution often contains fertilizers, which supplies the plankton with minerals and nutrients encouraging the plant to grow and release more biological material. With the increased food source the bacteria also increases in number and consumes the plankton turning the oxygen rich substance into carbon dioxide gas. This creates hypoxic zones, areas with too little oxygen to support life. One of the main places off of the United States coast which has become a hypoxic zone is the coast line around New Orleans in the Gulf of Mexico. The Mississippi River drains into the warm gulf carrying with it all of the fertilizers and pollutants from the Midwest farms, affecting the marine life from afar. Once the contaminants enter the gulf many people assume it will dissipate and cause little harm to the environment. This would be the case if the waste wasn't caught in still waters created by shipping lanes and lochs. The dirty water is trapped while the natural water flow is diverted and the depleted areas ore not renewed with the fresh oxygen filled water. Commercial Fishing Lanes in 2008 (National Center for Ecological Analysis and World Hypoxic and Eutrophic Coastal Synthesis) Areas (Owen) The impact on fishermen is almost as devastating as that on the fish. Since the fishermen rely on the fishing lanes close to shore, they search for the marine animals ineffectively in the dead zones. When fish are forced to flee the pockets of contaminated water they adapt by swimming in new locations farther from the shore. Therefore, the dead zones force fishermen to sail farther to reach their livelihood, which in turn merely expands the dead zones. Unfortunately, the slower moving marine wildlife such as crustaceans, starfish, plants, etc. cannot escape the hypoxic zone, like fish, and they are bound to drown in their own homes. This is depleting the lobster and crab population as they predominantly live from the rocky coastline to the continental shelf, areas threatened by dead zones. With these limited space requirements also being exhausted by shipping lanes and pollution, the big blue sea is getting much more crowded. The warm ocean breezes foreshadow another detrimental occurrence within the sea. Global warming has more effects than merely changing the world's weather patterns; it also lowers the amount of oxygen that can be absorbed within the water. On an everyday basis we see this when a chef boils a pot of water, bubbles of oxygen separate from the liquid as the temperature is increased. Globally this means that when the greenhouse gasses released by automobiles, farm animals, and other pollutants trap heat within the Earth's atmosphere the temperature of the ocean rises. The heated water doesn't dissolve as much life giving oxygen and therefore fewer plants and animals will be able survive underwater. Also about one third of the human production of gaseous CO2 gets dissolved in the vast oceans, slowly turning the water more acidic (Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute). With more CO2 absorbed and less O2 dissolved in the water life is made unbearable for marine animals. Imagine the thousands of pounds of fish washing up on sandy beaches, rotting because they could not escape the increased temperatures and lack of oxygen. Their gills flapping as they slowly drown in the dry water. The genocide of marine animals and the resulting effect on the human, flora, and fauna's food supply would be cataclysmic. Sadly the situation doesn't appear to be improving; the number of dead zones has increased from the 146 systems reported in 2004 to over 400 reported in 2008 (Owen). However, some efforts have been made and 13 systems are beginning to dissolve oxygen and harbor sea animals once again. The Global Ministerial Environmental Forum made strides in addressing the dead zone conundrum especially focusing on the Nitrogen runoff spurring plankton growth. The consensus was that countries would try to reduce nitrogen emissions produced by automobiles, decontaminate sewage waters better before releasing it into open waters, and endeavor to find alternative energy sources that don't release greenhouse gasses. On a more definitive international level, the European nations that border the Rhine River agreed to reduce by half the level of Nitrogen released into the river and hence into the North Sea. Granted all of these proposals are difficult to enforce and measure as countries have little influence on others' internal policies. On the home front, the United States has tried to fine businesses for polluting public waters illegally. This is a good way for the government to make money but the environment is still at a loss. Large businesses pay off the government fines, viewing it as a normal transaction, completely disregarding the environmental consequences. Also it is sometimes difficult to pinpoint who is at fault for the contaminants in the water. Farmers in the Midwest disregard their fertilizer's runoff, which seems insignificant, but then all of the farmers' waste builds up. It isn't economically feasible to tax each farmer for such a minimal and easily contested fine. In an attempt to lower the amount of vehicles producing excessive amounts of green house gases, President Obama began a limited policy entitled "Cash for Clunkers," which involved turning in inefficient cars for energy saving new cars at a reduced rate. The ideas behind this program were well intentioned and foresighted as the poisonous CO2 gas that is overwhelming our atmosphere and water supply takes about a hundred years to fully disperse ("Global Warming Quiz"). The largely unregulated release and accumulation of green house gases must be cut back immediately to mitigate the environmental disasters that will be released against our children and our children's children. In the interest of protecting the future of all the peoples of the world, there are many options that the government can explore to reduce the pollution and runoff that cause dead zones. The first step would be to create a clear system, maintained by the government and universities, to continuously record and monitor the amounts of toxins released into the water. Based on this information the government can create guidelines that restrict nutrient pollution. Robert Howarth, Editor-in Chief of Biogeochemistry and professor at Cornell University, believes that the implication of a nationwide plan has the potential to lower the amount of damage to costal ecosystems by twenty-five percent over the next twenty years. With the federal government providing clear legislation the state governments will not quarrel over boundaries and prosecution rights, letting violators slip through the cracks. However, the government moves slowly making environmental decisions so, it is important that American citizens write to their Congressional leaders and make sure action is taken at the highest level. While the government deliberates action there are a plethora of tricks and techniques that everyone can do to reduce their own carbon emissions and pollution. One tactic is to lower the thermostat 2°F in the winter and increase 2°F in the summer, which will lower energy bills and save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year from being released into the atmosphere (Petrone). In fact by simply wrapping an insulated blanket around the thermostat, it can save 1,000 pounds of CO2 yearly. Common solutions like recycling cannot be overlooked as people can eliminate 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide by recycling half of a household's waste. With these helpful tips and the hundreds more offered on the internet a citizen can reduce their carbon dioxide emissions substantially, reducing the amount of greenhouse gases heating the oceans and overwhelming the oxygen supply. We can make a difference. So write to Congress and make our voices heard. Follow through with energy conserving decisions especially by reducing, reusing, and recycling. Help stop the millions of marine animals from perishing due to human negligence and the yearly 150,000 worldwide deaths blamed on global warming ("Global Warming Quiz"). With global participation, the plankton to bacteria ratio in the ocean can be balanced again and create thriving ecosystems out of dead zones. Make the words that describe the ocean once again be: diverse, flourishing, alive. Bibliography "150 'Dead Zones' Counted in Oceans." U.S. News: Environment. MSNBC, 29 Mar. 2004.
