China's Green Lakes: The Algae Invasion
Okay, I'm going to show you a picture, and you can take a guess at what it is.
A may playing around in some very lush grass? Wrong.
That's algae, a lot of algae, so much algae that people can bury themselves in it, and earthmovers are need to clear them out of the water.
Ewww, not the best place to take a dip, even if the temperature is soaring.
So this massive algae outbreak is happening in Qingdao. It's a beautiful resort city in eastern China, but I think the blue-green algae is really taking the fun out of a resort holiday.
The water really looks more like a field of grass to me. Imagine getting all excited for a day out at the beach and then seeing this, though it seems the green waves didn't stop some people...and...wait...they taking the algae with them as a souvenir?
So, just how much algae is here? According to the local environmental and sanitation officials, they're clearing out 11 million pounds of this stuff, every day.
By now, you're probably asking yourself, how the heck did all those algae grow here? Well, it's because of water pollution, from things like fertilizer run-off. This increases the content of certain nutrients that the algae thrive on, and when the conditions are right, they bloom and bloom and bloom.
And the problem is more than just a nuisance for swimmers. In Anhui province, Chaohu lake, China's fifth-largest freshwater lakes, is so covered with algae that the fish population is starting to suffer. Earlier this year, in China's 3rd largest lake, algae also cut off the water to 2 million people in Jiangsu province.
So there you have it, China's green algae filled lakes. And the big question, would you take dip in the green water if it meant escaping the heat? Have you seen this elsewhere in the world? Tell us in the comments section below, and don't forget to subscribe!

Tảo Xanh Xâm Chiếm Các Hồ Nước ở Trung Quốc | Góc Nhìn Trung Quốc
Bây giờ tôi sẽ cho các bạn xem một bức hình, các bạn thử đoán xem đó là gì nhé.
Một người đàn ông đang chơi đùa trong đám cỏ? Sai.
Đó là tảo, nhiều tảo đến nỗi có thể chôn người ta ngập trong đó, và những người nạo vét phải vớt sạch chúng ra khỏi nước.

Đây không phải nơi để ngâm mình, mặc dù thời tiết đang bắt đầu ấm dần.
Hiện tượng này xảy ra ở Thanh Đảo, một thành phố nghỉ mát xinh đẹp ở miền Đông Trung Quốc, nhưng tôi nghĩ đám tảo này đã khiến cho khu này mất cả vui.
Cá nhân tôi thấy hồ nước trông giống một bãi cỏ hơn.
Tưởng tượng bạn đang hào hứng vì sắp được chơi đùa trên bãi biển thì lại nhìn thấy cảnh này, mặc dù những làn sóng xanh đó không cản nổi một số người...khoan..đợi đã...không lẽ họ xem tảo như một món quà lưu niệm?
Vậy, lượng tảo này nhiều đến độ nào?
Theo các nhân viên vệ sinh mội trường đại phương, họ phải vớt khoảng 5.000 tấn tảo mỗi ngày.
Đến lúc này, bạn sẽ tự hỏi tại sao đám tảo đó lại mọc ở đây phải không?
Đó là bởi ô nhiễm nước, từ những thứ phân bón chẳng hạn.
Nó làm tăng hàm lượng các chất dinh dưỡng mà tảo cần, và khi điều kiện thích hợp, chúng sẽ sinh sôi nhanh chóng.
Sự phiền toái này không dừng lại ở đây.
Hồ Sào Hồ, tỉnh An Huy, hồ nước ngọt lớn thứ 5 Trung Quốc, bị tảo xâm lấn nhiều đến mức loài cá trong hồ cũng bị vạ lây.
Đầu năm nay, tại khu vực hồ lớn thứ 3 Trung Quốc, tảo đã cắt mất nguồn nước của hơn 3 triệu người dân tỉnh Giang Tô.
Vậy bạn có câu trả lời rồi đấy, tảo xanh phủ đầy các hồ ở Trung Quốc.
Câu hỏi đặt ra là, liệu bạn có muốn ngâm mình trong hồ nước xanh này để tránh nóng không?
Bạn đã từng thấy hiện tượng này ở nơi nào khác trên thế giới chưa?

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
