Dear Friend ,

Tell President Obama: Clean Up This Slime!

We've been slimed.

Every day, our streams, rivers, canals, and bays are under attack from fertilizer, sewage, and animal manure. Maybe you've seen it yourself -- that telltale ugly green slime. This pollution threatens our health, our way of life, and Florida's unique wildlife that depend on clean water.

The EPA developed pollution limits that could help clean up this slimy mess. But, we need your help to get them implemented. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection is moving to dumb down these new pollution limits. The EPA is signaling that they may approve these new "faux" limits. We can't let that happen.

Tell President Obama and the EPA to enforce strong, quantitative limits for pollution in Florida.

Together we can flood President Obama with letters demanding action to clean up this slimy mess. We must ensure that the EPA does its job and protects our water. A strong pollution limit is good news for anyone who swims, boats, fishes, or drinks water. It's time for the EPA to step up and act.

Call on President Obama today to take action and clean up Florida's toxic slime.

Thanks for all you do,

P.S. Activists from all over the state have been tracking and photographing Florida's toxic slime. Take a look, it isn't pretty.
