But if you don't live there and value nature then you probably don't care much.
Red tide has always been around, always will, this is not some event that happened only recently.

The cause(s) of red tide, no matter what they are, has nothing to do with Dem versus Repub, as both parties at some point very recently have controlled Congress and the presidency, and I have seen no direct action from them on the issue.

Baloney.

"Red Tide Rick" gutted regulation of nutrient pollution that nourishes toxic algal blooms, including red tide.

Warming oceans and waterways due to man-made climate enable more persistent and severe toxic algal blooms.

See post 371 in this thread, which otherwise is informative.

Red Tide that bad???

Let Florida stew in its own environmental fate by electing both of these bozos to higher office.

Because liberals have done an amazing job in California, right?

Needles in the streets, litter everywhere, smog, wild fires half the year, poor air wuality, homeless camps on sidewalks, human feces on the sidewalks

Florida is not only cleaner but it has better air quality.

Didn't you know California fixed all that with catalytic converters and specially mixed fuels? $5.00/gallon gas fixed all of that...no?

You forgot to mention that California is $2,300,000,000 in debt. They blew all that cash and couldn't even manage their forrests adequately enough to prevent the recurring forest fires. How sad is that?

The Libs there passed laws that prevent homeowners from cutting down trees that are growing too close to their homes to create a safe buffer from fires, and stop forresty rangers from cutting down trees to create fire breaks.

Liberal policies are killing California. The middle class has been decimated there. They've fled to Nevada, Arizona, and Texas.

This is precisely why Bill Nelson had to go! 40 years in office and this is what his results looked like. Pathetic.
