<h3>Stuart Causeway Call to Action</h3> Sponsored by [https://www.facebook.com/IndianRiverkeeper/ Indian Riverkeeper] We invite residents and visitors alike to turn out and send a message to fellow residents, office-holders and environmental agencies that our public waterways are at the tipping point. Let’s send the message with homemade signage that it will take personal responsibility as well as political will and accountability to restore the health of Treasure Coast waterways. Our problems include inadequate sewage infrastructure, the need for more septic tank to sewer conversion, the overuse of fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides, and harmful discharges into our coastal waters from Lake Okeechobee and other interior lands. We encourage social distancing and masks wherever possible and we ask that you refrain from bringing signage that supports or denounces any candidate running for public office. And if you would rather attend by boat, kayak or stand-up paddleboard please do! We will be on East Island, which is the easternmost end of the Causeway. Check the live Facebook post on this page for directions on where to park. We will gather on the eastern side near the Hutchinson Marriot. ===Statewide Event Information=== Stand with us on a statewide day of action to DEMAND CLEAN WATER. We want legislative reform of this state's water protections NOW. Florida's IS water, and year after year our Representatives have kicked the can down the road while polluters have been given a pass and our infrastructure is overburdened and underfunded. The Indian River Lagoon is dying. There's sewage being dumped into our waterways, toxic algae blooms are rampant, and the government is spraying herbicides directly into canals and lakes. The EAA is back pumping its agricultural wastewater into Lake Okeechobee, Lake Okeechobee is discharging massive amounts of polluted freshwater to estuaries on both coasts, and The Florida Bay is dying while Sugar lobbyists continue to prevent Everglades restoration. Phosphate mining is stacking contaminated industrial wastewater while discharging mining waste into our rivers. Toxic human sewage known as biosolids is being spread on farmlands, our springs are turning from blue to green, and we are about to spend 26 billion on new toll roads through wildlands while Amendment 1 funds continue to get raided by special interests. They STILL haven't even banned fracking and drilling in a state where 20 million people get drinking water from a porous aquifer. This list goes on and on. Enough is enough. We have organized, asked, bartered, and begged for reform, now it's time to DEMAND it unequivocally. The statewide bridge demonstrations for Clean Water will happen at 11:00 am on Sunday, 18 October 2020. These events are NON-PARTISAN. Please leave political divisions, arguments, and campaign signs at home. Those fights need to be settled at the ballot box, not this demonstration. OUR message is simple: "The People of Florida DEMAND CLEAN WATER!". It's time that we come together across the state of Florida to show our leaders that Clean Water is the most critical issue facing our state. Social distancing and masks are encouraged.
