Entangles fish, marine mammals, and sea birds, preventing them from feeding or causing them to drown. Dead zones: algal blooms consume oxygen, kills shellfish and displaces fish. Poisonous algae and countless plants and animals have invaded harbor waters and disrupted the local ecological balance. Destruction of coral reefs. Of the seventeen major world fisheries, four are depleted and the other thirteen are either fished to capacity or over-fished. Commercial marine fisheries. Nitrogen and phosphorus from sources such as fertilizer, sewage and detergents, enter coastal waters. Invasive species, such as zebra mussels. Cruise ships and tourists. Ghost nets: lost or discarded fishing nets keep on fishing.
