The Prince Edward County Field Naturalists (PECFN) website now features JC’s “A voice for the turtle,” her protest poem against the construction of 9 plus 27 industrial wind turbines (each 450 feet high) at the the environmentally fragile south shore of Prince Edward County.
“It’s a travesty: the Government of Ontario willingly supports the construction of these huge wind farms which will destroy species at risk, including the Blandings turtle, and cause irreversible and serious harm to migratory birds and the delicate alvar terrain. All in the name of the toxic Green Energy Act which subsidizes with Ontario taxpayer’s $’s the production of electricity that cannot be stored, that Ontario cannot use and therefore sells at a loss to the US. It’s madness,” JC declares.
The poem is part of JC’s Prince Edward County Suite and first appeared as “Spectacle.” Here’s the link:http://www.saveostranderpoint.org/a-voice-for-the-turtle-a-poets-lament-jc-sulzenko/#sthash.7EBRESkU.dpbs
