Clean Up

After my daughter completed a year long project on the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) I learned quite a bit. One thing I found interesting is how dog waste contaminates the IRL. It is often found in storm water runoff, which enters local canals, is not treated and ends in the IRL. The bacteria found in the waste can cause algae to bloom and kill fish…just another reason to clean up after your dog.
