Ok, that's a fair point, but what these new sonars can do, it's like setting off a small nuke underwater. That's a little bit extreme; we wouldn't just nuke some land based target willy nilly. We shouldn't be doing it in the ocean.

Well, at least nature did it first. I'm ex-Navy and it is an awful fact. It's not needed and isn't worth the price.

Modern sonar can kill marine animals with a wide area of effect. Militaries don't like to talk about it, but there's plenty of proof.

It's not the green that fucks you up, it's the payout. Payout should be 36 to 1 for a fair(er) game. When you set it at 35 to 1, that's giving the house another advantage other than the green. Good to know.

The military (at least in the US) is not anywhere near being close to a top polluter. They led the way in remote solar and organically produced fuel. They've effectively become one of the oldest green friendly organizations.
