Reading this book allowed me to remember words from a famous psalm when would people stop stretching our money making imaginations? The Currituck lighthouse 1823. Theory trials and errors. It is all about not appreciating artificial changes in the North Carolina Coasts shore lines. It is all about over populating the natural shore lines of coasts and the devastation of natural habitats, marsh lands, swamps and streams. Mega tourism hotels trade overcrowding of earth' space. Depletion of aquifer reservoirs. Coastal land fills are human activities that take people into the clear cut coastal shores. The pleas "We must stop such activities on the coastal shores." Especially remove the sinking of swiming pools. Is this not why we go to the coastal areas to enjoy the natural waves of sea water? Why have humans removed the water table, clifs and mountains to make the artificial accessible short cuts to the tourists delights or horrors. We are removing natural barriers to guard our inlands from hurricanes and tornadoes it just out into the Atlantic. The wise lobby against - from past experience always on the move to another disaster government decision to cut through Currituck Banks. Country and residents lobby against against displacents of marshland, wildlife serious reviews. The question in this book. Is further social progress and economic growth inconsistent with the survival of the natural systems and resources of the region? See Practical Hits for visitors.
