Nasty Algae Envelops Chinese Beach

Eww!

Children! What are you doing?

These little kids must be channeling Finding Nemo‘s Dory because algae or not, they just keep swimming.

The green algae–known as enteromorpha prolifera–continues to spread along the waters of China’s eastern coastline of Qingdao.

Though it’s not poisonous, it can hinder the fishing industry and tourism.

Um, yah… It’s definitely not a tourist attraction.

Could you imagine? ‘Come one! Come all! Come see the pot lookin-like beaches!!! Five bucks a picture.’

We hope they get some clean water and soon!
