Algae Blooms in the News
Alright yall, this could not be a more perfect current events issue for what we are talking about. Its got algal blooms, cultural eutrophication, overfishing, food webs, dead zones, D.O., and government intervention of course! Its pretty much exactly what we are talking about but a real world example. Crazy picture too. http://reefbuilders.com/2010/03/08/algae-blooms-threaten-choke-baltic-sea/
Wow. That’s impressive!
Thought you’d be interested that Congress passed some legislation in 1998 to work on this problem in the US:
