## Resource

Alaska’s waters are turning toxic as harmful algae blooms surge, fueled by warming temperatures — posing deadly risks to humans, wildlife, and ecosystems. Alexandrium algae causes paralytic shellfish poisoning with no cure, already killing people and seabirds. Pseudo-nitzschia, linked to memory loss in California, is being closely watched in Alaska. Meanwhile, cyanobacteria are turning northern waters bright green and choking fish with oxygen-depleting blooms. Prevention and awareness are now critical as nature’s warning signs grow louder.
