Very interesting video. The quote that jumped out at me was the one by Craig Quirolo when he is talking about tourism in the Florida Keys: "... the last thing on their list is seeing a living coral reef. It's sort of a sidebar to going out and getting smashed on a boat." Lots of other important quotes in this movie.
Great video. This all happened right in my backyard and I never heard of Dr. Lapointe until now. I do recall the US lawsuit making the news. Big Sugar put on a media blitz to fight it.
This was a video shown at a class of mine. I thought it was very interesting and watched it at home to really listen to what was said. This video and my teacher do a good job at feeding on the interests of their students.
Important information about impact of pollution (nutrient enrichment) runoff on the coral reefs, and entire ecology of the sensitive area. A must see for all Florida residents, legislators and students!
