Angie tried not to think much about politics. It didn't seem to matter who was in power. Nothing got better in the besieged breathtaking world that she cared about. The Everglades would never be the Lush unbroken river it once was the shallows of Florida Bay would never be as pure and sparkling with fish. The bleach dying reefs of the keys would never fully blend back to life. Being overrun and exploited was the historical fate of places. So rare and beautiful... All the treasured wilderness that had been sacrificed at the altar of growth was gone for all time. More more disappeared everyday. Nothing ever changed except the speed of destruction and only because there were fewer pristine pieces to sell off, carve up and pave.
