Toxic Rain kills lake Aug 22 part two

Second part of my walk around the estate where I live. A visit to the lake shows the lake is unhealthy. This is after a southern storm that made the air smell like an old garage.

This reminds me of my "backyard" the Bronx River in Scarsdale NY...I had to stop going there- it made me too sad..do you have any gas pipelines around? I think they are drilling in your area- this could be the effect of their work.

@rockstartix4u they aren't drilling within 400 miles of me.  Bucks County is the wrong side of the Appalachians, we have a limestone base, no real areas to drill.

@22RZE Thanks Matt. It's nice to have verification from Bucks County. No one wants to discuss it, although they notice the changes, it is chalked up to the unusual heat. I'm sure heat has something to do with it, but there is something else. The duckweed I mention was there a month ago and now it is all algae. Try to document what you are seeing. History is dependent on many eyewitness reports, otherwise it is just propaganda, not history.

@betheqt Beth, it's Matt, in PA. I drove past a pond today, on my way home from Oxford, (on Rte. 1), and the entire top was covered in a rainbow covered film. I didn't have a camera, but we had heavy rains today. My heart sank when I saw it. I have trees in my yard, that the leaves are entirely yellow now. All of the vegetation has been affected by this, as I have been noting it every place I go. We are in deep trouble here, and BP and the media will cover it up and ignore it.

@22RZE Where are you at where you are experiencing this?
