Heartbreaking footage reveals marine life killed by Florida's toxic algae bloom
- 6 years ago
This devastating footage shows the corpses of sea turtles, manatees, dolphins and fish that perished on Florida’s coasts this week as a result of ongoing pollution.
The shocking devastation of wildlife is being caused by a red tide event, a blooming of algae, which is worsened by sewerage and fertilizer pollution from so-called superfarms.
The upsetting footage was captured by Ivy Yin, a videographer with Our Children’s Earth Foundation, who traveled to various beaches along Florida’s coast on July 30 and 31.
