South Australia’s Toxic Algal Bloom Sparks Crisis

A massive toxic algal bloom, fueled by climate-driven marine heatwaves and nutrient pollution, has ravaged South Australia’s coastline since March 2025, killing over XXX marine species across an area twice the size of the ACT. Premier Peter Malinauskas calls it a “natural disaster,” urging federal recognition, while a $14M state-federal fund aids cleanup and research. The bloom, identified as Karenia mikimotoi, threatens fisheries and tourism, with no end in sight. Experts warn of long-term ecological damage as dead fish and sharks litter beaches.
