Daily Life In Florida, USA
Highly invasive water hyacinth (eichhornia crassipes) is quickly taking over Everglades National Park in Florida, USA. The water hyacinth is known as the world’s worst aquatic weed because of its prolific growth. It lowers biodiversity in tropical waterways, shelters pests like mosquitos, and causes eutrophication. However, there are other uses being found for the abundant plants, such as for cattle feed and in biogas production. (Photo by Creative Touch Imaging Ltd./NurPhoto)
