With oceans warming up‚ toxic algae blooms are popping up all around the globe. Toxic algae blooms are very harmful and happen when phytoplankton accumulate and create toxins like domoic acid‚ which is a neurotoxin that can be deadly (Geiling). What give the phytoplankton the conditions to grow are the increasing temperatures of the oceans. Emissions are coming from places like cement production (which is a leading cause) deforestation‚ and fossil fuels like coal‚ natural gas and oil‚ which increase

zooxanthalle algae‚ which gives corals their color and food source. When corals loose their zooxanthalle algae they appear white. Global warming has been known to be the reason behind coral reef bleaching. Since corals are very sensitive to temperature change an increase or decrease of one degree Celsius can trigger them to bleach. Soon after severe bleaching they often die. When temperatures exceed maximum levels for long enough the relationship between the zooxanthalle algae and the corals

longer as clean as it was. More farmers are becoming more commercialized which is leading to an increase in the use of chemicals within their farming techniques. They perceive it as a positive change‚ due to the short-term boom in fertility of the algae and their crops. However they are unaware of the long-term effect and the health risks associated. On top of this‚ the use of strong pesticides not only affects the local population and workers‚ but it also affects the people in Burma who purchase

Many people are unaware of the daily negative impact they have on the environment. For example‚ the majority of the human population uses basic household products which contain toxic chemicals in their ingredients. It is most common that when people dispose of products they will either dispose of them in the trash or pour them down the drain of their sink. Unfortunately‚ “two-thirds of aquatic life is considered to be an endangered species because of improperly disposed chemicals and other waste…those
