i think someone should repaint the waterfront market wyland mural with a scene that more depicts the actual state of the reef off key west, these wyland walls give us a false sense of reality based on a happy feel-good security blanket with a pretty picture when in fact the environment is dying and all that toxic paint washes into the sea, the plastic molecules last foever in the bodies of those that eat it and those that eat them and so on from one generation to the next
we should assemble a team to photo document the real reef every year and update the mural with natural paints maybe then we really might save it
