Hey, who turned out the lights??


A tourist attraction in Puerto Rico known as the glowing lagoon has suddenly gone dark!!!! This lagoon lies on the northeast side of the island but what many are baffled about is what is causing this lagoon to go dark. What causes the glow is bioluminescent organisms in the water. A few of the hypostasis for the lac in shine is of the cutting down of the mangrove trees to clear out more paths in the forest, but it is more likely caused by the building of a new sewage and water plant near buy. They believe the excess water flowing into the “bay”, as it is also known is disrupting the life cycle by caring excess water and pollution into the water. What I find to be so interesting is how buy humans modernizing how many other beautiful things in the world are going to be lost or destroyed in the proses, and what job is it for us as humans to protect these wonders of our world.
