Someone has an UGLY tire dump site on the shoreline of Mobile Bay along the so called Crepe Myrtle Bicycle Trail. One new tire has been added to the over three dozen other tires.
I can give you one reason why the world's ocean levels are rising. There is a LOT of rubber displacing water.
It reminds me of Alabama's artificial reef program. According to the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Alabama has one of the largest artificial reef programs IN THE WORLD.
Even though the coast of Alabama is only about 70 miles long there are reportedly over 17,000 artificial reefs made by man. That means there is garbage dump about every 21 feet on average hidden under water off the coast of Alabama.
I say garbage dump because artificial reefs are made by dumping military tanks, ships small and large, concrete bridge rubble, metal bridge spans, car bodies, appliances and no telling what other crap is being dumped in the water along the coast to create unauthorized reefs. Everything dumped into the water displaces water causing water levels to rise. It all adds up.
That is Alabama for you. First they fill their drainage ditches with trash. Then they fill their creeks and rivers with trash. Then they fill their Bays with trash. Then they fill their shorelines with trash. Then they turn their tiny Coast into one large dumping ground and brag about. That is UGLY!
