The Swedish Bureau of Meteorology has issued a stark warning to beach bums along the north coast of Estonia that the waters of the Baltic Sea are seeing one of the most ghastly proliferations of blue-green algae in recorded history!This is grave confirmation indeed of the predictions made by Finnish scientists in May that the choking mass of algae (more correctly referred to as 'prokaryotes') in the Baltic this
summer would be significantly more choking than this time last year.Thankfully, with the country's traditional handful of days in which the water temperature is slightly above that which induces almost instant hypothermia already behind it, few are likely to be troubled by the peculiar pea soup phenomenon. But there's always next year!

Like, isn't blue-green algae healthy? WHy is it bad, dude?
I have no idea. But they're pretty. Shouldn't they be called blue-purple algae anyway based on that picture? Where do they get the green thing from?
