You’d think the ecofreaks would celebrate that. Just think of all the CO2 that bloom soaks up and converts to oxygen.

Wrong kind of seaweed. Nori is made from Porphyra...not Sargassum.

Say what?
Drag it bit by bit to a barren rocky place to make topsoil. Save the seaweed!

Maybe just a smudge of dirt and oil on the monitor screen?

This sounds like the plot for a most awesome B-rate horror movie. Heads up, MST3K.

Fear not Free Republic…..Gov DeSantis will fly over it, sprinkle some DeSantis Fairy Dust and it will disappear, causing no harm to the environment.

Well wouldn’t that be good for the climate?
After all, seaweed consumes carbon dioxide and excretes oxygen.
Nature balances it all out.

The bloom is fed by all the crap dumped in the water after Ian.

This seaweed bloom is UNPRECEDENTED and the media will shortly explain to us why this is a CRISIS caused by:
Racism
White supremacy
Global warming
Climate change
Homophobia
Income inequality
Overpopulation
Lack of access to abortion
The internal combustion engine
Capitalism
Freedom
Firearms
Low taxes

Chop it up and use for fertilizer. Mulch around all those orange trees.
