@VictoriaLandis1 Horrifying!
Yup. But that they suspect so much excess cocaine coming from the sewers into the ocean is staggering.
Guess I didn't realize that cocaine use was still so prevalent. Thought it had taken a backseat to the newer crap out there.
@VictoriaLandis1 Exactly. I didn't even realize there could be a by-product but then I never thought to learn about how cocaine is made. Until now. Thanks for the prompt to learn something new today.
Now I wonder about all the other cities with inadequate sanitation facilities and high drug use. Also wonder about all those orcas turning boats over a while ago. And whales that beach themselves, did anyone test them for cocaine?
