Oxygen is toxic anyways. Every organisms that breath or has breath oxygen is dead or will die one day.
Oxygen is actually pretty toxic. At atmospheric pressure, it has to be diluted with nitrogen to not kill everything
Algaes should never be sad. If you come across a sad algae making sad algae noises, please give it a soft kiss and word of encouragement.
Can someone explain why we're all about planting trees but no one seems to be cultivating algea? I think it's faster than growing a tree and it seems way more effective.
Because algae is an ecological nightmare. OP doesn't know what they're suggesting.
-
For it to grow you need an excess of something like nitrogen in your water supply
-
It's nearly impossible to cull
-
It is commonly toxic
-
If the bloom is big enough it will block all sunlight from entering the water. Killing off everything else that makes oxygen in the water. Algea releases oxygen into the air so everything in the water will use the remaining oxygen and suffocate.
-
If a bloom dies, the microbes that decompose it use more oxygen than the algae gives off in the first place. Again suffocating fish and anything else in that water.
Can't we make pools just for growing algea? Like not have anything live in it except the algea and then enrich the water with excess pollution to keep them fed. I remember some project that had a tank of algea over a highway and honestly to me it sounded like the smartest shit ever. Fix the pollution right at the source.
