It is bad for humans, not just creatures. The fertilizer in the water causes red tide blooms that not only cause fish to die, but causes spores of red tide algae to blow inland for many miles and cause respiratory problems in humans. And especially since the Sarasota area has many senior citizens that already have COPD. Also, the dead fish wash up on the beaches and drive tourists and tourists dollars away.
