Almost everyone agrees Marco Island and many other coastal communities have a problem with sustaining the purity and beauty of the coastal waters. The reputation and interests of the community thrive on the wildlife, turtles, birds, dolphin and manatee! The population and real estate growth of communities make balancing landscape fertilizers and sewage treatment a major problem. That is established!
The question is “What is the solution?” I believe almost everything in life is about balance and coexistence of civilization and mother nature. The emphasis and debate need to turn to solutions! I have seen and heard very little discussion on solutions or investigations of leading technologies to purify and treat Marco’s wastewater etc.
It would be helpful and constructive to hear more about technologies that have been explored and evaluated for cost and efficacy. I am always fascinated by solutions mother nature has such as “Enhanced Biologic Phosphorus Removal.” You can literally buy bottles of bacterial biologic treatments for ponds and small waters online or at Walmart. Some international experts have published books on biologic removal of phosphorous (Insight into Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal, EBPR, System by Hasfalina Che Man; Lambert Academic Publishing), Thrift Books.
Whether EBPR or some other wastewater treatment is the answer, let’s not give up on Marco’s waterways and shoreline.Marco Island’s community leaders and actionshave an opportunity to set an example and be an environmental model.
