  "We have to realize that hypoxia is not a local problem," said Robert J. Diaz of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. "It is a global problem and it has severe consequences for ecosystems."
  
  "It's getting to be a problem of such a magnitude that it is starting to affect the resources that we pull out of the sea to feed ourselves."

  Less than a year ago on propeller, Fundamentalist Christians, NeoConservatives and Republicans denied these areas existed and viciously name-called anyone who tried to talk about it.
  
  Why do these conservative f*****s want the world to die?

  More media hype of a natural Algae bloom. It's called "Red Tide" The Algae bloom sucks up all the oxygen then eventually the bloom itself dies. This is not new. We have it here in Florida almost every summer. Although this year it has been far less severe than in the past and in fact there is no reports as of today.
  
  While red tides in the Gulf of Mexico have been occurring since the time of early explorers such as Cabeza de Vaca[5]. It is unclear what initiates these blooms, and how large a role anthropogenic and natural factors play in their development. It is also debated whether the apparent increase in frequency and severity of algal blooms in various parts of the world is in fact a real increase or is due to increased observation effort and advances in species identification methods
