Cyanobacteria or blue-green algae, showing areas of blue, which are representative of decaying areas. Cyanobacteria is one of earth’s oldest organisms at 3.5 billion years old. Exposure to this bacteria can be harmful and sicken humans, pets and aquatic life. Cyanobacteria can cause gastrointestional problems and has shown to possibly contribute to ALS, Alzeimers Disease and cancerous tumors of the liver. It is caused by heavy spring rains which deposited fertilizeer and farm runoff into surrounding waterways. Lake Okeechobee, FL 2018.
