I just think the novelty of these type of displays was up in the 90s, It's time for an upgrayedd. I propose leprechauns flying up and down the river wearing water jet packs, shooting people with their Chicago-style hot dog cannons would be more with the times. What's your idea?

A recent article asking the same thing on Tampa Bay's activities
While there doesn't seem to be obvious red flags of harm, something doesn't feel right to me about dumping chemicals into the environment that eventually break down. The article says the company making this particular dye warns about it in higher quantities or letting it become concentrated in places downstream, and wearing protective equipment when handling the larger amounts. How much of that is only legalize to protect from misuse vs. actual tested issues?
I just think that color green is ugly and looks like industrial waste
it's how you make more ninja turtles though, and lord knows we need them now more than ever!
Chicago is the only city other than New York that makes enough pizza to support growing teenager mutant ninja turtles.
But New York probably has more sewer rats trained in karate.
That was hard to read, and amounts to "It's safe and used responsibly but people are scared of color green so it must be bad."
It's wasteful and a bad look, but many things are only hazardous in high concentrations. Even a tanker full of milk getting dumped into a small lake could cause mass die offs. The PPE is probably more about preventing it from being breathed in or getting in their mouths. You can check out the SDS here.
Would any animals in the water not breathe it in or get it in their mouth?
The deadly chemical known as Dihydrogen Monoxide absolutely fills that river, you know? Might want to keep your distance.
