Ugly Moore Creek

Moore Creek pollution at the Halls Mill Road bridge. Not only does plastic trash get caught in objects above the water, plastic coats objects under the water radically changing the marine environment.

Moore Creek pollution just south of the I-10 bridge. But, the pollution is mostly plastic bottles and styrofoam which people drink out of so it is harmless, right? That is the thinking of many leaders.

Reality Check:  The chemical BPA used in plastic bottles was found to be dangerous to public health which is why so many plastic products sold now say BPA Free. In an Ugly twist of fate, health researchers report that the BPA substitute BPS was found to boost the formation of human fat cells meaning exposure to the newest BPA substitute may interfere with the body's endocrine system, just like BPA. And this generation of Petroleum based Corporate Profit Oriented Giants keeps adding more petroleum plastic to the Earth's waters and Ugly Communities like Mobile continue to ignore the warnings and continue to ignore the plastic floating in their public waterways. That is retarded.

Press Register Polluter

The City of Mobile City Council addressed the aggressive Press Register distribution of their Gulf Coast Life ads last summer. What is it like now? Above, Press Register trash in the drainage ditch last week.

3 pieces of slippery Press Register trash on a public sidewalk Dec 2015.

On the other side of the road are two more pieces of Press Register trash in another drainage ditch.

Where does the trash in drainage ditches end up? Polluting a public waterway. The submerged Press Register trash above is in Dog River seen two weeks ago.

More Press Register trash polluting a Mobile waterway.

The issue here is a company delivers their product by throwing it haphazardly on the ground even though it could be put on the door step or put in a mailbox or put in a paper box. It is well documented Press Register products end up polluting State waterways due the archaic form of delivery which pollutes waterways in violation of State and Federal laws. 

The Ugly part is, despite the Mobile City Council knowing Press Register pollutes Mobile's waterways, they won't do anything to punish the polluter. Apparently Press Register's lawyers have more power than City lawyers. Yup, Corporate Bullies get away with polluting public waterways while environmental watch dog groups and state enforcement agencies have their head up their ass.
