Aerial footage of @RoyalCaribbean Serenade of the Seas creating massive turbidity disturbance at Port of Key West. This used to happen 800 times a year and is why we voted them off the island.

Congratulations to @StevenNekhaila. We've been on opposite sides of some issues, but when we've sat down together we found mutual respect and a lot of issues in common. Always great to see a Key Wester rise to the national level.

Damn, I guess I better start using X. I’ve been sane this long, might as well try something new.

Honored to be elected Chair of the Libertarian National Committee! It’s time to take the LP to the next level—more fundraising, more candidates, and real political wins.

Ed Russo is a deeply knowledgable and passionate defender of clean water. This is an excellent move by @realDonaldTrump

[Unofficial Trump on X @trump_repost]

I am pleased to announce that Ed Russo, an Environmental Expert, will lead our Environmental Advisory Task Force, which will advise my Administration on initiatives to create great jobs and protect our natural resources, by following my policy of CLEAN AIR and CLEAN WATER. Together, we will achieve American Energy DOMINANCE, rebuild our Economy, and DRILL, BABY, DRILL.

@bennyjohnson Ok Benny.

@ccmclem @EPA @USACEHQ @Interior @FLDEPNews Correct. And the brown turbid water has potentially lethal effects on marine life including endangered species of coral.

[Safer, Cleaner Ships @ProtectKeyWest]

If your state's "dept of environmental protection" permitted flagrant water-quality abuse like this, you'd beg the Feds to take over too. @EPA, @USACEHQ, & US @Interior should ignore this shameful political stunt by @FLDEPNews & help us protect what's left of the Florida Reef.

[Florida DEP News @FLDEPNews]

(1/4) Eighteen members of the Florida congressional delegation are expressing their strong support for Florida’s 404 permitting program in a letter to @EPA, @USACEHQ and the U.S. @Interior.

@FLDEPNews @GovRonDeSantis You should have a new slogan. Something like "More Protection, Less Regulation"

Brooklyn: Dead whale found on the bow of MSC Meraviglia. Ships are the leading cause of death for whales. 20,000 a year are killed. There are measures available to decrease these deaths. Are shipping and cruise lines willing to implement them? https://t.co/3qlKPCbCky

ICYMI: The sawfish that was the first-ever attempt to rescue one of the endangered species in an ongoing die-off has died. But wildlife officials say they’ll keep trying.

[Safer, Cleaner Ships @ProtectKeyWest]

Matt is 100% correct.

[Florida Expert @Matt_Fleming321]

Mote Marine Labs gets so much fawning adoration from the press, but in reality it's an agriculture funded greenwashing operation for republican interests. And it's a powerful one.

[Safer, Cleaner Ships @ProtectKeyWest]

Turns out there’s good money in watching sawfish die in fish-tanks, growing coral in labs & watching it die in the ocean, & greenwashing cruise ship operations in Key West. Congrats on all your revenue ⁦@MoteMarineLab⁩. https://t.co/Q7MGYLRhQ7

SCOOP: Patrick Bainter, lead consultant for Florida Senate Republicans, admits to hiring disgraced ex-senator, and approving a dirty trick: a 2020 "ghost" candidate who helped oust a Democrat that had been a thorn in the side of Florida Power & Light.

@Paul_Renner @SpencerRoachFL @myflhouse His “common sense reforms” included single-purpose legislation nullifying a local election result to reward big donors. His pursuit of “freedom” included theatrical attempts to undo an entire municipality’s government. Good riddance, 🪳

[Branch Floridian @JackLinFLL]

We pump millions of gallons of pharmaceutical laden human waste into the ocean off South Florida daily and everyone is wondering why massive algae mats are smothering all the coral and fish are spinning around in circles and acting like Philly zombies #nature

[Friends of the Everglades @FoEverglades]

This crisis emerging out of the Florida Keys is an alarming reminder of the water-quality crisis in Florida.

We haven't done enough to rein in the pollution that leads to water problems, like the destruction of an endangered species.
