RAISE YOUR VOICE
Call YOUR town's commissioner. Tell them that cyanobacteria blooms will effect all of us in PBC, and all commissioners should come together to defend their citizens. Find Your City Government Contact Info“A blue-green algae bloom was identified in water discharging to the Lake Worth Lagoon last month with toxin levels high enough to trigger the posting of multiple warning signs at Spillway Park, a popular fishing spot”
-The Palm Beach Post
Towns all over the Lake Worth Lagoon watershed are being subjected to a toxic cyanobacteria bloom that fills the air with a poisonous stench. Humans breathing cyanotoxins have an increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and prion diseases –and all are incurable. Pets can be mortally sickened. From the Glades to Palm Beach, we should all RAISE OUR VOICE.
If enough of us take action quickly, our Commissioners should attend the Army Corp of Engineers’ LOSOM meeting on Friday from 9am to 3pm and fight effectively for us.
