Here in Austin, Texas, we're lucky to have Ladybird (Town) Lake downtown. For most of the year, algae blooms are so severe that it's not safe for people or dogs to swim in the lake. It drives me crazy that people consider this anything other than anthropogenic.
I would love to see any effort to filter out urban water pollution. And I commend any change in the narrative that undesirable populations of blue/green algae, zebra mussels, etc. are inexplicable inconveniences, instead of what they really are: opportunistic growths driven by human water pollution and a warming climate.
