Creator's Key Takeaways

Nearly 19,000 people are trying to stop a cruise port from being built and the number is growing every single day.

They are talking about dredging 50 feet into protected waters.

Because those same waters are home to manatees, coral reefs, fish nurseries, and nesting birds sitting inside a protected marine preserve that has been in restoration for years.

This port could change cruising out of Florida forever. Bigger ships, more options, more economic growth for the entire region.
