Australia's Growing Algal Crisis in South Devastates Marine Life
Australia's government has unveiled an assistance package of at least A$14 million ($9.1 million) to help tackle a growing algal bloom crisis off the southern coast that's killing marine life and damaging regional fisheries.
Environment Minister Murray Watt announced the funding package in the southern city of Adelaide on Monday after inspecting the damage. He described the unfolding natural disaster as 'a very serious event.'
