For Lough Neagh
Before the Myth asks us what the ground kept. It asks us what the waters remember.
Lough Neagh is being destroyed in our own time. Years of pollution have contaminated the lough bed and fed blooms of toxic blue-green algae. Even if the problem is fixed today, the damage has been done for decades. The wildlife and the people around the lough are paying for it.
I stand with those fighting for it. I ask you to stand with them.
The waters are asking something of us now.
