Infuriating… Of course with our use of the ocean also comes the responsibility to keep it clean, not just for others to use and enjoy but obviously for the wildlife that call it home. So naturally many were infuriated when a video went viral showing two boaters dumping trash cans over the side of their boat off of Boca Inlet down in Florida. https://twitter.com/Pick_Up_Project/status/1785375448815304943 The group was heading out from Boca Bash, an annual party on Lake Boca Raton in south Florida, and event organizers quickly condemned the participants for dumping what appeared to be a trash can full of empty cans into the water not far from the shore:
“Addressing the viral video of a boat exiting the inlet into open ocean and dumping their garbage into our waterways; we cannot be more angered and disturbed by these actions. Once the video was posted we quickly got to work with the community to discover who the owner of the boat was and who was on the vessel in this particular instance committing an egregious act. Several people that helped in identifying them had already contacted authorities to handle the situation.
