Executive Director/Coastkeeper

Emerald Coastkeeper

As a member of Waterkeepers Alliance, we strive to maintain drinkable, fishable, swimmable waters for our community.

You can start tuning in to “PURE H2O” every Wednesday at 9AM CST on Pensacola Business RadioX. Every Wednesday there will be a local discussion on important environmental points of interest. From clean energy to healthy water to environmental justice, education and much more.

For our first podcast, Laurie Murphy, Executive Director of Emerald Coastkeeper will be interviewing local educators and a non-profit organization “Harnessing Opportunity and Power of Education (HOPE) about the importance of supplemental STEM education and art/cultural education in underserved communities.

For more information on how you can be a guest, contact Laurie Murphy at laurie@emeraldcoastkeeper.org.

Founded in 1999, Emerald Coastkeeper is one of 240 (and counting) member organizations of the Waterkeeper Alliance. We are a grassroots organization that monitors four main watersheds in the Florida Panhandle. Our mission is to investigate, educate and protect our right to swimmable. fishable and drinkable water. We believe that healthy waterways are directly connected to healthy communities and healthy people.

In our four watersheds, you will find many springs, creeks, rivers, bayou’s, bays and of course, the Gulf of Mexico.

Pollution can happen anywhere, not just from large industries. Some of the greatest concerns in our region stem from residential pollution.

Some of the more common culprits are septic system failure, erosion and sedimentation, nutrient loading from fertilizers, red tide, heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls, (PCBs) lead, mercury, animal wastes, industrial paint source discharge, oil spills, commercial vessel pollution, residential development, and household garbage.

Protecting our waterways and drinking water from contaminants is everyone’s responsibility. We can’t do it alone…we need your help!

Feel free to contact us if you want to volunteer or to report a problem. We look forward to creating a healthy community with you!

Ryan Stuart is President of Wellness Water Company. Wellness Water Company currently serves thousands of satisfied residential & commercial customers, and specializes in whole-house water filtration/purification, as well as customized commercial solutions for restaurants, hotels, and buildings of all sizes. For more information, you may contact them at 844-944-PURE, or online atwww.wellnesswaterpurification.com. Wellness Water Company, where the difference is clear!

This is for people who value their money & their health, but can’t figure out witch is more important. Under stand that all the money in the world will not solve your health problems when you make bad choices.
You can eat very healthy, work out, take vitamins but if the foundation (water) is of poor quality, you will never get the full benefit from your efforts.
This is why I designed the UltraMax Alliance Home water filtration & sterilization system that mimic the natural hydrological cycle of the earth.
Wooden t it be nice to get the full benefit from all the effort you put fourth trying to get and keep a healthy body.

Minimally-invasive Gynecologic Surgery

The field of women’s health has had some remarkable advancements in recent years – well even recent
months! Although there have been many advancements in women’s health, today’s show will focus on
three areas we have additional resources for here in Georgia: Laparoscopic Surgery, Maternal Fetal
Telemedicine in the OB office and Zika virus recommendations for pregnant women.

In this US, 1:9 women are expected to have a hysterectomy in their lifetime, mostly for benign disease. Technology advancements have now made it possible for MFM specialists to bring high risk care directly into the OB office vs. the patient traveling to a tertiary care center and well – the Zika virus has come to our communities in the US. Dr. Hugo Ribot has been a premier Georgia OB/GYN for over 20 years and has continued to be a top GYN surgeon and forward thinking obstetrician outside of the metro Atlanta area.

Time to get informed on what’s new in women’s health!
