Reply to comment by [deleted] in Alaska's cancellation of the snow crab season offers a grave, potential prediction for Maine's lobster industry. by combatbydesign
The gulf of Maine is warming rapidly. Lobsters are moving north (its a dying industry in southern New England). The danger is that the population continues to shift north and the fishery in Maine collapses because there are no longer enough lobster to support the size of the commercial fishery.
Fishermen, however, are adamantly against off-shore wind, which would help reduce fossil fuel use.
