I work for the University of Toledo. You should try to contact the civil and environmental engineering department we do research on the algal bloom.

Never heard you can't bath in the water. I just came back from a vacation on the 1st day and didn't know what was happening, other than I couldn't drink the tap water. The next day I was able to buy bottled water at a store. It really wasn't a big deal. It is a problem that needs fix though.

All pollution , factory farms, habitat destruction, mega garbage dumps, over fishing, plastics all have one common denominator…..humans. The UN estimates that around 385,000 babies are born each day around the world (140 million a year). According to World Population Review, the average daily death rate in 2024 is 166,859 people worldwide. There’s the problem.

We're seeing true greed.. money over people what wrong with this country.

Liberal BS

Song????

The state of Ohio is notoriously inept when it comes water quality standards. Part of this rests with the power of the Ohio Faar Bureau's involvement in protecting polluting farmers in the watershed. The rest can be laid at the doorsteps of poor sewage treatent including non working septic systems draining directly into the lakes tributaries. Every discharge point in the watershed must be cataloged and permitted.

It's kind of funny about water quality and how I noticed it back when I was a kid in high school. We used to have a water well that was located between a 25 acre field and the barnyard. The springtime my foster dad would start cleaning out the barn and spread the manure on the 25 acre field Would slope down towards the well. I told my foster mom one day the tap water tasted kind of funny. She blamed it on the fact that the school had just switched the water and they had chlorinated water. But it was springtime and we even had a river running through the basement to the sump pump, and the floors in the basement were always wet at this time of year. The year was 1969

IN 100 YEARS ALL THE WATER COULD BE GONE THERE JUST LIKE THE LAKE THAT'S IN RUSSIA 😮

I THINK REQUIRING HUGE TRENCHES AROUND EVERY FARM AND MAYBE EVERY FARM BEING DIVIDED BY TRENCHES THAT WOULD CATCH THIS THAT WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE TURNED INTO PLACES LIKE MARSHES DAVID ADAM GRENIS CURRENTLY IN HOUSTON TEXAS

Good luck dealing with a corrupt organization like the EPA.

❤

not trying to be smart aleck, but a serious technical question: was water pressure flowing sufficient in pipelines to use toilets?

Great video. This has much more impact than just Toledo. We need to protect Our Great Lakes. Ohio legislature needs to step up!

The fact the beaches at Maumee Bay are unsafe is ridiculous. Place should be packed every summer day

Very well done. Thank you for not letting anyone forget about this issue that is unfortunately ongoing

I’m on the wisco side of lake mich. 2 things: There are many polluted rivers dumping farm waste into the lake, the river ecosystems are destroyed. And native species in the lake are almost non existent in favor of “game fish” like salmon which are planted.

Work with your fellow volunteer citizen-led groups of Lake Erie Advocates and Lake Erie Waterkeepers to find solutions to this continuing crisis caused by the excrement dumped upstream in our watershed by corporate farms, costing our citizens to pay for the illegal practices The state needs to follow laws of government and law for the common good of humanity. It took work to get the support we now have of our government officials and it continues....

It took a miracle to get me to surface...once you know theres no goong back

I live in Ohio and I've never drank tap water unless it's been run through filters. It always tastes nasty.

I remember, the year before the first toxic algae Bloom, The E.P.A. gave themselves awards and bonuses for the great success of their "Voluntary Farmer Fertilizer Reduction Program". I remember it well because it made me wonder how a government agency decides why and how much "Bonus" to give themselves. Then the next year, we have this algae bloom PROVING beyond a doubt that those awards and bonuses were complete, corrupt B.S.!!!

Less than 800 views and under 200 subs is criminal

Factory farms are delicious.

I grew up in a mid sized Wisconsin town with a central lake. Algae blooms in the summer were a problem and a running joke. That stuff smelled awful, the lake turned green. There were rumors of dogs and kids jumping in that got sick. Luckily the drinking water was not affected. Most of the problem was due to poor farm management upstream meaning factory farm animal shit running into the water causing a spike in nitrates which is algae super food. We still have a long way to go fixing our water supply in the USA.

All of these factory farms are slowly destroying the land and the soil runs off into the waterways with all the fertilizers, pesticides and other crap. You have to cover the land when it's not in use and rotate the crops among other things. Until we do these things the soil will be unhealthy and dusty and run off into the waterways and pollute snd destroy the environment. Then we swim in it or drink it and wild animals have to drink this crap all the time.

The toxic algal blooms have been linked to improper farming practices. So to fix this issue we should be overhauling the farming system. They will never do this though because the government suckles from Monsantos tit. Regenverative and organic farming practices would fix a whole lot of our problems in the U.S.. This mixed with some better regulation and policing of dumping in the waterways and heck we could all be relaxing by the rivers for a summer dip in no time.

I'm a Toledo native and still live in the area. I vividly really this situation. Ironically, I was and still am living out in the country. Our well tried up that same day as the water crisis. I'm also a social worker, and I remember the stress that the city and area was in. You don't realize how just how much water you use under its gone. We live in with this beautiful area. But we need to take care of it as stewards. Because our area takes water for granted because we are blessed to be in the Great Lakes. Another point that needs to be discussed is how the trees and woods helped to filter the soil before the sediment, and such hits the watershed. Now we have less trees but more farms which cut down the trees to drain the swamp. And to have farmland. I live out in the country (30 min outside of Toledo near the airport). I understand and appreciate our farmers. We need the products they produce. That being said, there needs to be a way to have safe water and to keep our farms.

You ain't got no cations...The soil no longer retains anything.

Pray to St.Floyd of Fentanyl to return to the Great Lakes and save us all

this is sooo skibidy

Very well said Jami. Agree 100 percent. Keep fighting for us and being our voice. Thank you.

I really shouldn't be surprised by the Tate fanboys getting enraged and totally glossing over the blatant murder of a corporate whistleblower 🤦

You’re kinda biased bro

The tiktok ban is a good idea, too bad that Bill is more about giving the government the ability to control and or shut down socially media sites.

This Guy sounds like he really don’t know tate learn what your or who your talking about first this is old fucking news and incorrect news at that

Wow totally unbiased news. /s

Interesting topic

Lol yep

I like this bro. Keep it objective truth. Keep it up. -Sully

Well isreal has every right to defend itself and its people, you are pushing hamas propaganda

Hamas is literally terrorists.

Your news story is biased.

Please keep F'ing with TRUMP. All it does is make his numbers go UP! ALL TRUMP ALL DAY LING, BABY!!!

The dirty demokrats will do ANYTHING to keep Trump off the ballot. I mean ANYTHING! Be careful President Trump..

Taken off the ballot before anything is proven. There goes "innocent unless proven guilty." I think that's written on an important document somewhere... 🙄

We need Trump. We don't want some pussy as president. Trump didn't do anything to be hated.

Plus what insurrection. He cannot overthrow himself. He was still president.

Illinois is a democratic run state of course that is obvious just look at how bad it is run and going down hill fast.

Isn’t that election interference?

TRUMP 2024
