We’re all gonna die. This never happened every few years or so before. Bush’s fault. He caused the rain that caused the fertilizer run-off that caused the bloom.

This is my town. The biggest problem is discharges from Lake O. My son is an avid fisherman and he is both angry and heartsick over the damage to the Indian River lagoon and the St. Lucie River.

and its been raining every day here for the past 6 weeks - so the Lake Okee drainage and this monsoon means tons of yucky fresh water staining the pastel colors of the clean ocean water. dang

I'm a little more south, but the beaches are regularly closed due to pollution by me and down in Dade county too. I gave up the beach years ago...you can't find parking and it's polluted. And all the cruise ships drop all that toilet water like a mile off shore and it floats over to the beach. The pesticides are overwhelming--- all our water and food sources are infiltrated. The spraying of big killer from the planes twice a year over south florida are causing the birds to literally drop dead from the tress. I've witnessed it. Very sad.

I’m in Fort Myers and it’s not much better here b/c of the release. The water is brown, full of grass and just plain nasty.
To: Fawn
Thanlks to Libtards, we allowed into America a host of criminals (illegal aliens) from Turd World pest holes. Not too surprisingly, we got their diseases, such as Dengue Fever and a dandy haemoragic fever called Hanta Virus.
TB has skyrocketed thanks to illegals.
The loss of some birds means nothing in comparison to keeping down insect vectors.
Call the Waaambulance, Fawn’s whimpering, again.
Better call Holy Mother Gaia, too. If Fawn’s correct, Mother Earth is about to be killed!

The spraying is also killing the bees.

So, all the pesticide pollution in the Lake —to the River to the Ocean is caused by illegal aliens? LOL
