Florida Today recently reported on the under-punishment of pollution in Florida. It pointed to the findings of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) that, “Thirty-four years of Florida environmental enforcement data … depict an enforcement program in crisis.”
The report ends with, “Pouring money into infrastructure projects will not be enough to clean up Florida’s dirty water and address other looming environmental crises.” This is where the Florida Right to Clean Water initiative comes in.
