China’s beautiful beaches have once again turned a vivid shade of green – not that this seems to have put off beach-goers.
The algal bloom has resulted in a gigantic blanket of algae hundreds of kilometres long smothering much of China’s Yellow Sea coast, the third such mega-bloom in the last 5 years.
The same region suffered a similar bloom in 2008 – much to the embarrassment of Chinese authorities, as it nearly ruined the marine elements of the 2008 Olympics:
The algae itself is not generally considered directly dangerous to humans (though whether the same can be said for Chinese beaches is quite another matter), but does have a devastating effect on other marine life.
Whilst a natural phenomenon which regularly affects seas the world over, the increasing frequency and severity of the blooms is widely considered to be tied to vast quantities of fertilisers, sewage and industrial effluent China dumps into its surrounding seas.

The woman in the second-to-last photo looks quite nice.
My flower would bloom for her.
We get it. You like sex and you think that talking about it all the time, even in unrelated articles, makes you look masculine and not gay.
0/10
Even my dog can troll better than you.
I have to agree, she looks pretty good. I bet if these weeaboos didn't know for a fact she was Chinese, they'd be all over her.
...hope to see a bunch of photoshop pictures of that last picture in a later article...
Oh yes I'll be shopping these.

Yup. Literally anything. Try fapping to a picture of yourself. That's quite a challenge for people I know. Wonder why.
Fap to a mirror.

Dammit so fixated on her body I didn't notice her face isn't...too good...
Draw in a paper bag on the screen of her face with a brown marker
That girl in the blue bikini has a necklace with "http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ckhNUA-WtUs/TR6B_AqZgtI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/D-M88p7bRTs/s1600/DEATH_NOTE_L_wallpaper.jpg" on it?
Last picture = Messenger of Cthulhu.
im waiting to see what kind of food they're gonna make outta this stuff...
pic 018(last) looks half chinese mutant :P
Picture 18
"SWAMP MONSTER!!"
Girl in pic 17 is kinda cute.
Anyway, are they insane? Even if it is completely harmless, who the hell goes swimming in green goo? Assuming its no different from fresh water algae, it is NOT the most pleasant thing to touch, even poke with a stick, LET ALONE get covered in. Sheesh, China. Never ceases to amaze me.
The 2 brave ones were there...the others.....yeah not so brave. It actually looks kinda fun! go in grab a whole lot of that stuff and go throw it at a innocent bystander.
The guy in the last pic seems to have failed to stay in hiding, even though he increased his camo index ._.
No, wait! A China quality ghillie suit?! Let's just hope this stuff doesn't explode.
the girl above the sniper looks tough. ._.
she have roberta's eyes.
why are u bashing on the person trying to help out?
fking dumbass is fking dumb
you spelled "fuck" wrong, u dumby head.
lolol, china owned
Algae Man.
Greenpeace should be happy, it's finally green in china
China's beach quality.
I see what you did there.
Soon China will invented deadly explosive from these green algae
lol The algal isn't harmful to humans... neither is the fertilizers, sewage, and industrial effluent that created this mess isn't either? They are worried about the Japanese whaling, yet pouring chemicals in the ocean that could effect more than whales isn't bad...
They helped create life instead of kill it off, not to mention that you can feed many, many worms with all the algae.. turning it back into fertile earth!
Or perhaps it's just a long term fishing plan.. in a few more years it will evolve into exploding algae as everything in china explodes.. and then it will rain fish from the heavens.
Unfortunately no instead it'll have the opposite effect.
The algae is short lived and when it dies off it depletes the water of all it's oxygen as it rots.
It can even become a red tide and render the shell fish toxic
This causes a massive die off of aquatic life.

Are the Chinese USED to this type of pollution?!
I can't think of ANY other way they'd enjoy this shit. God, that's disgusting. I'm surprised I can't see the stench.
Chinese is disgusting afterall~~
Like a pig
So for those foul screaming americans about 'generalizations'. You're not going to let these generalizations go without some downvotes? Or will you because that's just how hypocritical and double standard you are?
You do realize that in some areas of the US that overgrowth of algae is also around right? By the same method of pollution or toxic dumping.
Looks to me they're quite used to it indeed. How long has it been like this anyway?
