Another summer, another blue-green algae bloom. Lake Okeechobee is once again covered with hundreds of square miles of blue-green algae.

Look at this video shot by Ralph Arwood for Calusa Waterkeeper over the Lake this past Sunday. Everywhere you look you see the slimy green algae floating on the surface of the lake.
