Escanaba Harbor, Great Lakes Fish Rejuvenation and Perpetual Sustainable Economies

A video of Escanaba Harbor a few weeks ago when I went out fishing. I didn't catch anything and neither did a few others. One guy said he did but that was a few days ago. I think we need to find a way to bring back our fish stocks and improve the health of the Great Lakes. While they look pretty good in my area, I'm pretty sure that protecting the world's largest fresh water natural resources as well as a huge potential protein source (while the world is in desperate need of such fresh protein) would be a good idea.

Maybe if we get really good at creating sustainable systems we might be able to raise the ecological health of the Great Lakes, the commercial fishing capacity, and the economy at the same time (They call that a net positive. Based on total government investment and market investment we have an improving system along with improving economic benefit. We struggle with thinking about that when designing government policies sometimes. Other times we get it right. Macro economic and big data are dating so their offspring is likely going to be thinking about sustainable systems and larger environments of innovative development.)

Escanaba is one of those places that is on the cusp of an upswing. We have a few solid and functioning forward thinking leadership, a catalyst for change, and huge potential in a couple of different markets. Everyone sort of creates a vision and I think they might someday call it something like 'Escanaba the Dubai of the Great Lakes' 😂where investment, vacation, and recreation abound (Ok....its just theoretically. Sorry, I go down those paths of possibilities and probabilities just to see if its possible under the right circumstances. I should probably define the term Dubai because I have a Muslim sounding name so everyone gets confused and sometimes upset. I meant Dubai as an investment rich fun place to frequent that attracts some of the worlds leading investors and thinkers. I have no direct connection to Dubai as far as I know and am not advocating for it. I'm using it like a term such as the business magnet's quote from Richard Bronsons "In this digital age, it doesn't really matter if you are in Canary Wharf or the Caribbean; there are opportunities waiting to be grasped by entrepreneurs.").

The loud motor? Kind of a cheap motor from Asia that is unlikely to be healthy for our environment (It actually runs but is loud and smelly). Someone please invent a longer capacity small boat electric motor. I think the issue is the battery and the weight versus the thrust and capacity of current electric motors.
