Navy agrees to limit sonar frequency
Submitted by The Green ... on Thu, 08/14/2008 - 12:48am.
The United States Navy has agreed to limit the use of low-frequency sonar to certain training centers in the Pacific Ocean. Their use of it has severly damaged the reproduction of whales and dolphins which use sonar to communicate. This was agreed upon after the use of the Navy's specific sonar was termed illegal. It looks like our government is finally listening that their disregard for the environment is damaging our eco-system. This is a large step for cooperation between organizations and our government.
