Picture of the Day: Green Algae Bloom on the Nakdong River
This photo, taken Aug. 24, 2026, shows a hazardous green bloom that formed on the Nakdong River in the southeastern city of Daegu. Hazardous green algae blooms, which could result from a long-standing drought and high temperatures, suffocate fishery resources. (Yonhap)
That looks unappetizing. Is someone going to be arrested, fined, or incarcerated for that level of fish-killing pollution?
Go to my walk blog here, hit control-F (Win) or command-F (Mac), and type “algae.” This has been going on for a bit.
Heads up: I have a comment in your moderation queue.
Somebody sabotaged the water, just like the Washington reflection.
Thanks for the heads up. I freed your comment from moderation and yes I agree the algae issue has been going on for quite some time.
