South Australia’s algal blooms have devastated marine wildlife. Facing suffocation and cellular death, the record-breaking summer heat wave and excess agricultural pollution paired with the lack of westerly winds have created a bloodbath. Warning: this is scary af and sad. Don’t watch if you don’t like dead fish

Ine crucial thing I forgot to mention that I’m kicking myself that I didn’t is why the algal blooms are worse with greater heat: “Warmer temperatures prevent water from mixing, allowing algae to grow thicker and faster.”
