Default Too much fertilizer, Ohio and The Villages

News this morning of toxic water in Ohio, where folks are being told not to drink their tap water. This they say is the result of algae growing in their runoff waters, caused by excess fertilizer.
The older ponds in the villages have the same problem, although that water is not recycled into our drinking water directly, it does go into our Aquifer.

I have a view of a new pond, which is beautiful and without the algae I see in many of the older ponds. Discussion?
