A few weeks ago there was an article in the news about Orlando wanting to tap into the St Johns River to further development.  Last night it was the state of Georgia reporting Atlanta could go dry in 90 days. 

Can you imagine what it would be like to have no running water to your home? 

Something I found out last week that I also did not know before is that the aquifer Florida relies upon is shared by multiple states.

Some of the water being drained from Lake Lanier is coming down into Florida to sustain life for mussels and such. 

Stopping development will not solve this crisis, and it's also not the sole culprit but it surely is a major contributor. Allowing things to remain as they are could send it past the point of  no return.  This is no longer a preventative issue, it is damage control. 

Read the writing on the wall people, our natural resources are fast becoming the endangered species.

Getting Hometown Democracy on the ballot is the single quickest way to make a difference.  It is not a magic cure all but it's surely a step in the right direction for a change.
