April is #SpringsProtectionAwarenessMonth and an easy way to help care for our springs is to stash the trash when you visit! If there's no trash bin in sight, stash your trash, take it home, then dispose of it properly. #SaveTheManatees #SaveOurSprings

Not only is this month #SpringsProtectionAwarenessMonth, but today is #WorldAquaticAnimalDay! Remember these essential tips to safeguard our beloved manatees and all other aquatic animals that depend on healthy springs. #SaveOurSprings #SaveTheManatees

April is #SpringsProtectionAwarenessMonth Manatees rely on natural freshwater springs to survive in the winter, and Florida has the highest concentration of freshwater springs in the world. Protecting springs protects manatees. #SpringsProtection #SaveOurSprings #SaveThemanatees

This morning started the way every morning in Florida should, sipping coffee in a cool clear water spring watching the sun rise over the river with just the ducks for company.

Before Bush, Tx was beautiful, eco-friendly, SaveOurSprings was entrenched, or so we thought.
During the Bush regime, Tx became the most polluted state, surpassing Ca! Protected aquifer recharge zones were developed.
This story is no surprise.

Beautiful springs in Golden Bay NZ are threatened by a mine authorized by the government 😔 plundering for greed.

But hope!
A higher legal action is possible and is delaying the start of the massacre.

Help if you can. Thank you Kevin and Team at #SaveOurSprings
