dont eat the fish

In New York a Red Tide poisoning has klled many fish and made others very poisonous along the whole New England coast. They say plankton have caused it and there is alot more than there was befor, there is actually more than they think there ever has been. They have spred 30 miles and the diseese has gone farther than that.

This is very very bad news for everybody that lives there or close to there. The people who eat them get poisoned and the sellers cant sell them to anybody. The selling of the fish and other sea things is the " coastal community's commercial lifeblood. They say it may be months befor the fisherman can start fishing again.

The fisherman get over 4 million dollars worth of fish every year and this is there bigest times of the year. Some spots in the ocean are so bad they can kill a whole restrant. there have been more red tides than normal in the last few years. Thay are trying to get it all cleared out but it looks like it wont be all gone for a wile
