To: Argo's Cement Plant in Newberry Florida, EPA alachua county
It's Time to Fight Back:
Big Industry and the very areas they are located in are getting away with murder: Air Quality is in Danger!
Why is this important?
To stop the behind-door handshaking; to claim back our natural beauty. It's high time the DEP, the EPA, and the City and County work together and clean this up instead of hide from the problem. When I say there are problems--there are problems. Who monitors their own emissions??? Well, Argos does and the city of Newberry let them after offering them 7 years tax-free - with the promise of annexing in Argos (or who ever owns this factory at the time). Money Money Money. I am worth more than money, as well as is all of us.
I'm starting this petition because I have been its victim. I have been diagnosed with COPD, which is a slow, deadly pulmonary disease caused by toxic smoke; the toxic smoke they let out every morning before light in order to keep those kilns cranking.
