Penobscot Marine Museum will host “Fish, Wind and Tide: Maine’s Future Resources?” conference on 2 November.
For generations the resources of fish, wind and tide played key roles in Mainers’ lives. The Industrial and Technological Revolutions dramatically changed use of these resources. What is the current state of fisheries? Is there a new vision for Maine’s working waterfront? Can Maine lead the way in wind and tidal power development? This year they examine Maine’s history and future with regards to their resources of fish, wind and tide.
Schedule has 15 minute breaks between each session, as time allows. The organiser is allowing groups to set up tables around the perimeter to distribute information about their initiatives, products, etc.
Some of the topics of this conference are: Maine’s tidal power development, planning Maine’s coastal resources and Maine’s Wind power development.
