  • There’s something deadly in the waters of the Florida Keys, and no one knows what it is.
    It’s not harmful to humans, but something is killing the critically endangered sawfish. In the last six weeks, 20 sawfish have floated up dead.

      It's that green micro alge type filtering smallest nano scale oxygen and fish and some animals get the biggest sizes only some can't have it like they need all sizes of oxygen atom molecules cell sizes etc,. and higher into bubbles we can but that's different and used by other various organics and will be used but in some other areas diluting splitting up in to smaller if it gets a chance from alot of various ways of diluting therefore fish and some ocean animals can have only let's say one size or few sizes of oxygen to be healthy and here it's bigger oxygen molecules cells left overs still oxygenated water if tested but less of a dilution in smaller size in place of in mix of ocean water even layers of water have different levels of oxygen in water areas salt and fresh or mix and like with algea to much of and tiniest available gets used up in that way collapsing the eco chain..

    Maybe it's related to the unusual sargassum seaweed episode ? : Update: I heard from two experts in the aquarium industry that said it looks like something in the water like hevy metals, sargassum seaweed is a sponge for hevy metals so when it's decomposing it's giving off the heavy metals . But I also heard that before this happened the water had been more green than normal ?

      This is down in the Keys; in all faireness, how would the Lake Okee discharges cause this specifically? It causes other issues (algae blooms mainly by Stuart and Ft Myers on other side where the canals meet the open sea,) but anything below Marathon where this has happened is 150+ miles away. And why this is happening in the lower Keys and not in the above areas where the water enters into the open sea?
      Btw, just finished snorkeling for 2 days in the lower Keys, Veterans prk/7 Mile bridge area, Bahia Honda state park(Northern side and south of the old bridge) and did not see a single fish or invert displaying this behavior(???) .Even saw 4 big barracuda which supposedly this (whatever it is) is affecting. 😢
      Maybe a bit over hyped by the media again..

      I doubt it's the Lake in this case. Otherwise you'd see this fish behavior further up by Palm Beach/Broward and on the Gulf side. Gotta be something localized to the Lower Keys, though personally I saw nothing of what is described here.

      My thoughts exactly! Nature uses physics to migrate and find food. With a magnetic polar shift it would confuse especially species of ocean life first. In March of 2023 the degree of shift was already at 40%. Once the magnetic polar shift takes place (North X South) life will function somewhat normally again, however the animal life on earth and humans will be greatly affected. The field protects us from the rays of the sun, so many humans and animals will succumb to skin cancer. When the switch happens we will lose all common electronics and electricity grids, and they will all have to be reestablished again. Life as we’ve known it will revert back to the stages of the 1990’s. Be prepared to live without electricity and all electronics for an extended period of time. The strongest will NOT necessarily survive, only those who can accept change will. 😮
