Marine Pollution In Sri Lanka
An empty can was seen in the sea on September 30, 2023, in Jaffna, Sri Lanka. The increased concentration of chemicals, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, in the coastal ocean promotes the growth of algal blooms, which can be toxic to wildlife and harmful to humans. The negative effects on health and the environment caused by algal blooms hurt the local fishing and tourism industries. (Photo by Thilina Kaluthotage/NurPhoto)
