You can thank people like Pruitt of the new EPA.

This started happening way before Pruitt. We can thank Big Sugar and over-development for this mess decades in the making.

That’s a lake?

That photo is not of the lake, it is of many canals that are used to discharge the water from the lake to bring water levels down in the rainy season. Lake Okeechobee is quite large, at 1,900 km2.

You neglected to mention that this is the result of over fertilization by "Big Sugar" who have bought all Florida politicians like governor Scott so they don't have to pay the cleanup cost

Fertilizers are the MAIN Cause of Algae Blooms. Farmers do NOT Control RUNOFF from Fertilized fields. The HUNDRED Mile long DEAD Spot in the Gulf of Mexico is a DIRECT Result of FERTILIZER Runoff into the Mississippi River. A very SHORT sighted habit!
