Friday's protest was a huge success! Despite the heat over a 100 people showed up to protest the pollution that has closed Tel Aviv and Herzliya's beaches for over three weeks. A new member of Knesset, Nitzan Horowitz, from Meretz joined us to show his support as did veteran Knesset Member and environmental advocate Ophir Pines-Paz from Labor.
