Marine Pollution In Sri Lanka

A decommissioned boat was seen in the beach 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)
