enviroment

There are more water woes from Orlando to the Keys being reported on.  The article was focused mainly on restrictions being considered for watering lawns, it appears they're permanent until you consider that there is a plan afoot to start tapping various Rivers and/or tributaries. 

It was news to me that the South Florida Water Management District is already drawing water from the everglades. The article does not reveal how much and it appears they're about to attempt to increase the "allowable amount" whatever that is. 

The article also says that South Floridas' backup system which is Lake Okeechobee is at a record low level of 10ft. 

In pondering all the issues facing us such as over or irresponsible development and its effect on natural resources and quality of life along with the general feeling that the people have lost control due to the greed of some special interests, corruption and voter apathy has led me to a few thoughts I would like to share.

I was raised to be seen and not heard, raised to believe Adults are always right and should never be questioned and that the Goverment was going to do what it was going to do.  I was raised to be accountable for myself but to hold no one else accountable (Adults are always right and should never be questioned.)  Is it any wonder there is a large part of the population who are apathetic to what is going on around them.
