Have you had enough? This was taken at the Cape Coral Yacht Club boat ramp, just outside where they were meeting with the Army Corp, today 7/31/18. The female that is tied up is dead, they were getting ready to remove her from the water.
#Toxic18 addeed over 1000 new members in response to this. #toxic18 is a local group that have been documenting the algae crisis.
Cristina Maldonado, one of the founders and admin at #toxic18 said this on the groups page.
“It’s been a horrid day for our wildlife. The pictures and videos of the dead manatees have gone viral and we have added over 1000 members today. We welcome all of you to the group. Remember this is mainly a place to document the algae. We also encourage posts about human health, wildlife mortality, and economic loss. Remember if you are a registered Florida voter, your vote is the most important weapon you have. We have posted emails of our representatives on both the east coast and the west coast. Flood their emails, demand change. And if you are watching from afar, thank you for your support, spread the word, and feel free to also write our representatives.”
Call your elected leaders and tell them to fix the water. We have had enough.
