i was just thinking about this pollution thing today as i was driving down the coast, north of sb...there was a beach where we used to go to but it is downstream from a dump site & one of the most polluted of all the beaches here...
it looks beautiful & pristine, surrounded by fields but its not safe...sadly, most of the ocean here is pretty toxic, i think from agriculture runoff... the past few years they have been monitoring the water for all sorts of icky stuff & who knows how long its been so bad...every summer my son would come home from surf camp with a terrible ear infection...i began to suspect that our waters were polluted...turns out they really are unsafe to go in most of the time, especially the area where he was surfing...world class Rincon Point...i haven't been in the ocean here in years...only hawaii ******************************************** Kate Bennett www.katebennett.com sponsored by Polysonics Discover the Indies at Taylor Guitars: http://www.taylorguitars.com/artists/awp/indies/bennett.html ********************************************
