Erin Brockovich waz here!
“Where is Erin Brockovich?” I have heard this for five years. Every time I heard this I would respond “What would she do?” After a few years, I would say “She’s not coming. We have to save ourselves.” Then she comes! The entire room of water warriors filled up with positivity and hope. That’s what Erin brings. She brings hope.
I get frustrated when people say to call in other people to fix our problems. We are the ones that have to save ourselves. Not by calling the President but by changing hearts and minds right here. Five years ago I met 7,000 people who were as outraged as me. Five years later, thousands more are educated due to all of us out there who never stopped educating people. You never stop. We changed the Stuart commission. We can change the Board of County Commissions. We can change peoples hearts and minds. We must!
Erin Brockovich brought us hope.

We are so very close. Who thought five years ago that we would ever see this fixed? We are literally on the eve of getting the southern reservoir approved. Who thought five years ago we would have a “Stop Harmful Discharges Act?”
Erin said it herself that we are the people who will fix this issue. We the people.
“There is no left or right just right and wrong.” Erin Brockovich
