    The Carbon Trust believes that offshore wind power has the potential to supply 25% of the UK's electricity by 2020. To help make this happen, the Carbon Trust launched the Offshore Wind Accelerator, a ground-breaking research and development initiative. From 2003 to 2009 some 350 offshore wind turbines have been built at the rate of one every 11 days. They currently deliver about 1GW, whereas about 29GW will be required to hit the EU's renewable target for 2020. To achieve this, a further 6,000 turbines must be built at the rate of one a day from 2010 to 2016, rising to 2.5 a day from 2017 to 2020. They will be bigger and more complicated to install, standing in up to 60m of water, in some cases more than 200km from shore.

misperceive shifting baselines conservation environment

  • what we see as pristine nature would be seen by our ancestors as hopelessly degraded, and what we see as degraded our children will view as ‘natural’
  • two different types of shifting baselines: generational amnesia and personal amnesia
  • Generational amnesia is when knowledge is not passed down from generation to generation.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • National Parks are often view by Americans as the emblem of nature—even with roads running through them clogged with traffic.
  • The evidence for personal amnesia comes from an analysis of the responses of those people who thought that the bird fauna of the area had not changed
  • evidence of “generational amnesia
  • Personal amnesia is when people forget how things used to be during the course of their own lives, for example they may not remember that things which are rarely sighted now were once common
  • over one-third of participants had a static view
  • “If we don't realize what we are losing we stand the risk of sleepwalking through the destruction of the natural world without taking action to remedy the situation,”
  • in the western United States wolves have been locally extinct for so long that no one remembers when they were plentiful. As far the community is concerned wolves are not a part of the natural environment
  • The problem is especially exacerbated when scientific data is not available regarding past conditions of an ecosystem
  • human perception of nature is subject to all sorts of failings, due to short life spans, poor communication (generational amnesia), and unreliable memory(personal amnesia)
