    can you explain why the algal bloom causes oxygen depletion, when algae photothesizes more than the respiration during the night or the life of an entire world wont be possible, if energy production is less than the energy consumption.

    We are all being lied to about our drinking water. I've seen the side effects effects of being sick from this. Last year we were all told that they can't take this out of our water can't boil it or filter it clean so how are they cleaning it?

    Hello @Environmental Working Group,
    I am journalist for the French TV channel France 24, I work for a program about climate and environment called Down to Earth.
    We are doing a report about algae bloom and I would like to know if we could use some footage from this video,
    That would be very helpful to us.
    Thank you very much,
    Best regards

    You need to add the enviromental friendly flying carp there to eat the algae.Its crazy how much hated this saviour fish is in USA.Paddle fish its also good as it feeds the same like the chinese carp ,eating plancton algae.
