The article discusses how Florida officials are attempting to retrieve hundreds of thousands of tires that were dropped off its shores in the 1970s in a failed attempt to create an artificial reef. The tires are now causing problems, as they are smothering and killing natural coral due to ever-changing currents and storms. The cleanup effort, which began in 2008 but stalled due to divers being called away for urgent duties, has resumed and hopes to retrieve another 90,000 tires over the next two years. The tires will be trucked across the state and burned for energy at a waste plant. However, more than half a million tires will remain partially buried on the sea floor, posing further problems. The article also advocates for supporting The Guardian’s journalism as it is produced to serve the public interest and avoid false equivalence in the name of neutrality.
