Masses Of Seaweed Threaten Fisheries And Foul Beaches
Masses Of Seaweed Threaten Fisheries And Foul Beaches
NPR 7-21-18 FROM THE ARTICLE "We're talking about mass increase in nutrient levels from deforestation in the Amazon, from urbanization in the Congo," she says. "Plus climate change, particularly an increase in surface water temperatures. Because the two things that plants or this floating seaweed will respond to is an increase in nutrients and an increase in water temperature." https://www.npr.org/2018/07/21/63057...d-foul-beaches .

Re: Masses Of Seaweed Threaten Fisheries And Foul Beaches
This past weekend I went to a beach in Broward and saw lots of seaweeds covering the whole shoreline for at least 100 feet. The water visibility was less than 4 feet and the water had a nasty brown color that I have never seen in +30 years of going to the beach in South Florida. I spoke to a lifeguard and he told me its been like that for over a month now in many places. Hopefully the water clears up soon.

Re: Masses Of Seaweed Threaten Fisheries And Foul Beaches
Lets see here...Global warming causes the water to warm which kills the vegetation which rises to the surface which rots and releases more green house gasses which warm the earth more, etc...
Does anyone really believe the Earth is an unstable positive feedback loop control system built into it?? Pshaw...go get yourself some learnin' and stop believing the corrupt trying to scare your money out of you and gain control of all the resources.
