BioHavens and Bass

5/18/2021

Fishing for bass among BioHavens is an exciting strategy for algae reduction on Fish Fry Lake

​It’s just now mid-May and our water temperature has finally edged over 60 degrees, on top.  Fish Fry Lake went through its seasonal turnover a month ago, so dissolved oxygen (DO) was homogenous across the water table for a few weeks.  When that happened, bass were everywhere in the lake, top to bottom, even in its deepest reaches where DO normally diminishes as the season progresses.  We fished spoon plugs, minnow and crawfish imitations.  The use of “plastics” started yesterday, those plastic worms, probably imitating leeches, that seem to trigger insane bass action.  The official beginning of the new season started with a big bang!

The US is Now Poised to Break Out Around FPV

The Popularity of Floating Solar Makes the Possibility of Cleaning Up Water Real

The US has two-trillion dollars earmarked for climate action, and it's time to break out around FPV, fix impaired water, and reduce GHG too.

Floating Island International (FII) is reaching out to the international floating photovoltaic (FPV) community. The U.S. is poised to “Make America great... again” around the emerging alternative energy market.​

Get US into the Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) Game

1/14/2021

With the ongoing transition from obtuse and flat-out harmful environmental stewardship associated with Donald Trump, FII has quantified some of the impact of eutrophic, nutrient enriched agricultural water relative to greenhouse gas emissions. In a nutshell, by teaming with BioHaven’s nutrient reduction capacity, the Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) game can see bigger wins with carbon credit reduction revenue. By transitioning nutrient rich water, already at pandemic levels in the developed world (in particular here in the U.S.) FPV launches will qualify for carbon credit revenue.

There are other “applications” for BioHaven’s tried and true capabilities. These include key habitat expansion for critical biota, like pollinators and the growth of native sport fish. Safeguards the world's natural capital, and promises biodiversity! But FPV has not, to this point, been a water quality pitch.

Our company has thousands of island launches under its belt, compared to just hundreds by the entire FPV industry. FII is the American embodiment of constructed wetland, but much more resilient, more versatile, and has a minimal footprint, particularly in the form of real estate, required to pull off a BioHaven water quality solution.
