It’s almost like dumping it directly into the river.

We have the same problem locally with people planting grass right to the water’s edge around the bayou. It looks like pea soup some days, and then we get the red tides.

People move here for the sugar white sand, and then they plant over the top of it – it’s insane.

It will take years and years, even if we stop using all the artificial nutrients for the Gulf to begin to recover.
