Human Waste Water Caused a Massive 'Red Tide' Bacteria Spike in
Florida, Killing 600 tons of Marine Life
Sign Now
A deadly bacteria found in a substance called "red tide"
in Florida is suspected to have killed a huge amount of sea creatures this
summer. It is also causing respiratory issues in humans in the area. The
bacteria has shown up before and wreaked havoc, but this deadly outbreak
appears to be linked to the Piney Point phosphogypsum stack releasing at
least 173 million gallons of wastewater into the ocean back in April.
Now dolphins, turtles, manatees, fish and more are washing
up on Florida's shores, apparently suffocated by the blooms.Sign the
petition to join local advocates in demanding that Piney Point is
immediately shut down and clean up gets underway.
This tragedy was largely preventable. While algae blooms
of this kind have been occurring for hundreds of years, waste from human
activities can and does make the problem much worse. Among some of the dead
marine life are definitely members of endangered species that inhabit those
waters. This should be enough to hold the people who leaked waste water
responsible, but so far nothing has been done and Piney Point is still
operating. Sign the petition to demand action!
Thank you,
