A giant seaweed bloom – so large it can be seen from outer space – may be headed towards Florida’s Gulf Coast.
The sargassum bloom, at around 5,000 miles wide, is twice the width of the United States and is believed to be the largest in history.

Florida’s Gulf Coast is not twice the width of US.

Yes, the Blob. Oozing out of the Colonial Theater in Phoenixville, Pa. I went to school with the directors son. One day David brought in some pieces of the blob, it reminded me of silly putty, you could roll it up into a small ball it would bounce in a crazy way all over the place. He gave me a piece I wish i had kept it might have been worth a little bit these days. Lol

The producers say that “The Thing that Ate Pensacola” ...or Beloxi, or Galveston... just doesn’t have the same ring. The Thing in the Gulf is going to fester there in the first reel. Maybe gnaw on those small fry to build menace and make folks think it’s contained. Then it’s going to reach around the peninsula in the second reel to make its sneak attack on Miami! It’s going to be epic!

That huge blob of seaweed will require a huge amount of that nasty CO2 to stay alive.
Rejoice, y’all climate nuts.

It will be funny when the talking heads claim it will hurt “low income communities of color” disproportionately. Because, you know... All those poor people with beach front houses.

Nice.
If people pull up their interactive radar and zoom out a bit, they will see that.
