  • Read what happens to the fish and their reproductive organs in this ammonia-ridden soup. And people eat the fish.

  • @VideoFromSpace Don't believe me. Call Karla Capelli of the USGS (US Geological Survey (571)420-9408 or Ben Sherman (301)713-3066 of NOAA. Read their release dated 6/14/2011 about the current effects of hypoxia and eutrophication on microbial life in the Gulf of Mexico, aggravated by recent flooding. Don't believe me, I'm an artist. But this legit, scientific info is available to all. Can't buy off ALL the scientists, sorry.

  • @artistaylor No, the U. S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration wrote and produced it. You're their boss. if you can find factual fault with it, you should tell them.

  • This rosy picture is bullwinkle! Read about it on Wikipedia to learn the truth. The fertilized manufacturers wrote and produced this dishonest propaganda!
