Toxic algae is an increasing problem in Florida, whether it’s red tide on the state’s west coast, or from releases from Lake Okeechobee. Jill Roberts, from sister station WQCS in Fort Pierce, tells us about a statewide event to focus attention on the toxic water. Hands Along the Water will remind politicians that toxic algae is an important issue to the state's voters.
It's Sunday Aug. 12 at 10:00 a.m. Find an event near you by visiting the Hands Along the Water statewide site on Facebook HERE.
